Why is the information available to archaeologists about early Native American cultures very limited? Native American cultures were destroyed by disease before information could be gathered. Native Americans were mostly eliminated by inter-tribal warfare. Native American cultures made it difficult to locate information about them due to their secrecy. Native Americans had no written languages so their cultural artifacts could not be analyzed.

Answer :

Answer:

Option:  Native American cultures were destroyed by disease before information could be gathered.

Explanation:

Native Indians were the inhabitants of the New World before the arrival of Europeans after it discovered by Columbus in 1492. European began to establish trading relationships with the natives for goods. The European not only traded goods and built colonies but, they brought diseases and epidemic with them, that led to the decline of the Native American cultures. Approximately 90% of the Native Indians in America died of diseases. After getting contact with the Europeans, Native Indians started getting ill and died because they were not immune to these diseases. The Native Americans die because of chickenpox, smallpox, malaria, measles, cholera, scarlet fever, etc.

With so many dead, archaeologists couldn't collect information about the early Native Americans cultures.
