Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

European and Indian dietary practices differed significantly, especially in their sources of protein. Europeans had a more domesticated approach to protein, relying on livestock such as cattle, pigs, and chickens, while Native Americans often depended on what the natural environment provided, including small game and fish. This reliance on hunting and fishing by Native Americans contrasts with the European emphasis on agriculture and livestock.
