First Occupants: Population, settlement, economy, and culture:
- arrived in the Americas approximately 25 000 years ago; crossed "Beringia"; Inuit groups arrived much later;
- first traces of nomadic hunters in the territory of Quebec: 10 000-12 000 years ago
- three linguistic groups, Inuit, Algonquian, and Iroquoian, developed specific characteristics over a few thousand years;
- differing ways of life, social/political organisation, subsistence activities, and trade all directly related to the territories that they occupied;
- shared certain elements (belief in spirits = animism); all hunted, fished, gathered, and traded for items/resources not found on their territory.
