These societies were descendants of long regional developments.
Their ancestors had built monumental earthworks.
They cultivated crops.
They organized towns around plazas.
They developed political hierarchies.
They participated in regional networks.
By 1540, they were living in a world already shaped by centuries of Indigenous history.
De Soto’s expedition entered late in that story.
