The Indians of the Northeast kept everything pretty simple. They Summered at the coasts, and Wintered inland (typicaly in Fur Forestation). They built shelters of Wood, bark, Pine Straw, deer hide, etc. Many housed several families at a time. As for more ancient civilizations in the Northeast,evidence of more ancient retreats exist in the inland forests by the presence of "cairns". Some are still erect man-made caves of stone, others destroyed to just mounds of stone. They are present accross the northern northeast states. source: the web

Who Powhatan Indians helped the English settlers survive by?

The Powhatan Indians helped the English settlers survive by providing crucial knowledge of local agriculture and food sources, including the cultivation of maize, beans, and squash. They taught the settlers essential survival skills, such as fishing and hunting in the region. Additionally, the Powhatan offered trade opportunities, exchanging food and supplies for tools and other goods, which aided the settlers during their early, struggling years in Virginia. This relationship, although complex and often fraught with tension, was vital for the settlers' initial survival.
