Covered that later. Without the agricultural developments of the American indians this world would probably be unable to to support more than 500 million people instead of its current 7 billion.

I think that the world ate just fine before the discovery of the "new world" I don't think that the American Indian had the concept of planting a seed to produce a crop. They, of course ate what the earth provided, but to assume that a race of people who had no concept of the wheel could have established an agricultural program is nonsense.

Immediately to their south were civilizations creating cities, pyramids, stone buildings, metal tools and weapons,and a civilization that compared with the rest of the world. I have american indian blood in many of my relatives, but the American Indian population were VERY basic human beings.

You can discover all you need to know on the internet. Do so.

BTW, your thesis is readily discredited. Even in Eurasia where people had no knowledge of the wheel they managed to create domesticated food crops.

Frankly I think you are faking it.

BTW, the ONLY place South of the Americas is called Antarctica. The penguins live there. They’ve built no cities nor have they made metal tools.
