Welcome to The New World, a multi-author site for the exploration, investigation, and scholarship of topics related to the pre-Columbian cultures of America and the impact of European expansion to the continent.
Morning everyone writing from distant Africa. I appreciate the effort to get this blogging site up and running for us. My thought is to use it for those extended comments you want to write in your posts but don't feel they are as relevant or you might want to use your blogs for anything that moves you to explore other topics or interests as we move ahead. I found--to my surprise--in other classes that blogs were often more personal, relating to family and other events that at the surface seemed to have little relevance to our discussions--but, often these "unrelated" blog postings were incorporated into our collective learning experience. I look forward to the same for our blogs here. Just have fun; pursue your interests and ideas and we'll do our best to talk back! corky
