Yep. American Indians did import and cultivate corn. As JD says, it was a high mountain grass from Mexico. It was one of our first nonindigenous species invasions. [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]

Wouldn't that make them Agrarian?

Indians also burned the entire state of Kentucky every few years. Set the whole thing on fire. Was it to promote ground fertility or was it to ensure that none of the Indian nations bordering around Kentucky could ever inhabit Kentucky and increase their territory? Hmmm......
