Nomads are people who travel all the time searching for food
Glaciers are huge sheets of ice
Nomads walked across to North American from Asia when once the sea level was low because a lot of water was in the form of ice.

About 10,000 years ago, ice started to melt and sea raised.

"America" comes from "Amerigo Vespucci", which means the first people came back from New World.

After nomads settled down in villages, they began to farm crops.
Division of labor means people work different jobs.
