As a result of the growing trade with the Europeans, the Woodland Indians gradually abandoned their culturally based system of the Mourning War in favor of European-style warfare aimed at seizing territory and centers of trade. True or false?

Respuesta :

Answer: True

Explanation:

The Woodland Indians which included the Iroquois practiced a form of war known as MOURNING WARS where they invaded or went to battle, not to claim land like the Europeans but rather to avenge the death of a loved one.

Captured combatants were regularly assimilated to replace the dead loved ones and no lands were claimed.

This changed after they met the Europeans and they gradually began to seize land and establish trade centres.
