Ancient Americas: Pre-Columbian Era Overview 🌎

This video goes through the entirety of the Pre-Columbian Era.

It begins with the settling of the Americas, and the Paleo-Indian and Archaic phases. Focus is on the main civilizations of Mesoamerica and the Andean region, like the Olmecs, Mayans, Aztecs, and Inca, but also goes over the smaller cultures in North America and the Caribbean, like the Hopewell, Ancestral Pueblo, and Taino. Though much is in the Ancient period, the video goes up to the 15th or 16th centuries, so will be part of the Medieval series.

Welcome to The Medieval World series! This series is meant to summarize broad topics in history and balances political history and events, with social/daily life, and culture. If you've watched our History of the World documentary, this series is a perfect next step. The videos are standalone, but presented in a chronological fashion. The series will be divided into 8 videos about the Medieval Period, which we call Phase 2. Once these 8 videos are completed, we will move onto Phase 3, but this project will be considered completed, and compiled into ONE MEGA-DOCUMENTARY containing all 8 parts.
