After 500 years, the world’s huge debt to the wisdom of the Indians of the Americas has finally been explored in all its vivid drama by anthropologist Jack Weatherford. He traces the crucial contributions made by the Indians to our federal system of government, our democratic institutions, modern medicine, agriculture, architecture, and ecology, and in this astonishing, ground-breaking book takes a giant step toward recovering a true American history.

Thanks yet again, anansisan.
Pay no heed to the vitriol ejectors.
Just keep on delivering the good stuff.

They took ideas from more than just one source than English Common Law — that’s why you don’t have a king. Are you going to say the Greeks didn’t contribute anything to your system of government either? Now go back to eating your corn chips (you can thank the Indians for those, too.)

Oxford English Dictionary of ‘CORN’
“”"noun
1 British The chief cereal crop of a district, especially (in England) wheat or (in Scotland) oats:
‘fields of corn’
1.1 The grain of a cereal crop.
1.2 North American, Australian, and New Zealand term for maize”"”
—–
In British literature and in titles of paintings, songs, poems etc the word corn is extensively used and I have been puzzled by this because in the various contexts it was impossible that maize ‘corn’ was being referred to. Robert Burns (John Barleycorn) is talking about good Scottish barley used to make beer and whisky, not about maize.
So - the British took their corn to America and elsewhere in the form of wheat, barley and oats but maize is native to the Americas.
Google it - this conversation inspired me to.
