Native Innovation

Saw this at the National Museum of the American Indian in New York, it illustrates some of the inventions that we take for granted nowadays which originated in America before colonisation. "Native people of the Americas changed the world with their scientific discoveries and inventions. Today their innovations continue to influence our daily lives."
