the amerindians of the caribbean had towns spanning islands
the mayans had actual cities
??
but you called the land untamed
yes
but the natives were there
so its untamed by your standards?
lol
the natives didnt own every square foot of land and only actually developed various parts of the two continents
I mean.
hey everyone! TIL your right to your land is determined by whether you make roads or not
lol
???
but you just said the right to land was first come first serve
so they have to exploit the shit out of all of it to own it?
I'm saying that 100% of the land wasn't owned by natives
couldnt they let nature be?
you have to exploit land to own it?
idk why you keep saying exploit, is building roads and buildings really exploiting land
it literally is exploiting it
Technically, the natives still own land under trust with the Federal Government of the United States, hence why the Bureau of Indian Affairs and reservations exist.
wait
so did natives
exploit land
dunno, does it matter?
you brought it up LOL
they built canoes and huts and shit so yeah
they did
whats your point
like you said, they didnt exploit all of it
YOU brought up EXPLOITATION
cuz they understand the importance of nature
they believed what i believe, land isnt owned by anyone
no one was shoved out a vagene with the divine right to own the land
but
they had clear concepts of land ownership
nah they didnt
tribes fought over hunting territories
you had full scale empires
with clear land ownership
lions fight for territory too
