N2  - "Paths of the Mound-Building Indians and Great Game Animals" by Archer Butler Hulbert is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the ancient travel routes established by the mound-building Indians and the trails created by buffalo, which significantly influenced land travel patterns in America. The focus is on the intersection of archaeology, indigenous cultures, and the development of transportation in early America.  At the start of this work, the author discusses the significance of early highways as reflections of civilization, emphasizing how the paths laid by buffalo and indigenous peoples shaped the landscape and patterns of travel throughout American history. The premise is established that understanding these routes is essential to comprehending Native American culture and civilization. Early observations reveal the interconnectedness of topography and travel, suggesting that these natural pathways were used not only for migration but also for trade and military movements, providing a foundation for subsequent explorations by European settlers.
