  2. Introduction Many Native American groups lived in Texas before the arrival of European explorers in the 1500s. The Native American groups of Texas developed lifestyles, cultures, and governments that suited their location.  In Texas today we can find some of the influences that Native Americans have had on the state. How did these people live their day to day lives? How are their lives different today? IntroductionTaskProcess(A) Process(B)Process(C)ResourcesEvaluationConclusionSources
