An example of textbook history: The Eastern Woodlands cultural region reaches from the Mississippi River eastward to the Atlantic Ocean and from Canada to North Carolina. Winter snows and summer rains produced plentiful forests, lakes, and streams.
Two major language groups emerged in this cultural region. In most of the territory, people spoke Algonquian (al-GON-kwee-in) languages. In New York and around the southern Great Lakes lived the Iroquoian-speaking groups.
Plentiful WoodsThe forests provided most of what the Haudenosaunee (hoe-dee-no-SHOH-nee), commonly referred to as the Iroquois (EER-uh-kwoi), needed to live. For food, hunters prowled through the forests to track deer. Men also hunted bears, trapped beavers, and caught birds and fish. Women gathered fresh greens, nuts, and berries. They made syrup by boiling down sap from maple trees.
Instead of walking through the thick forests, Iroquois often paddled log and bark canoes along lakes and rivers. Because waterways also provided fish and drinking water, Iroquois built their villages nearby.
Each settlement could have dozens of sturdy log-frame houses covered with elm bark. Such longhouses were usually about 20 feet wide and up to 400 feet long. Several families lived in sections of the longhouse.
Women FarmersTo clear a space for farming, Iroquois men burned away trees and underbrush. Women did the rest of the farming. After hoeing the soil, they planted corn, sometimes several varieties. Around the cornstalks, they let beans twine.Squash grew near the ground, keeping down weeds and holding moisture in the soil.
When the planting was done, women tanned deerskin to make skirts, capes, and moccasins (soft shoes). They sometimes scraped corn kernels with bone tools and ground the corn between stones. In the fall, they stored the harvest, often in large bark barrels in the longhouses. Iroquois crops included sunflowers, tobacco, and many vegetables that are still planted in American gardens today.
Notice how the authors talk about indigenous peoples in the past tense.

Hmmmmm. Then why the random passage that sounds suspiciously like something that a teacher would give as a resource?
