    The ancestors of native peoples migrated to North America across the Bering Strait from Asia around 32,000 years ago. There were three main indigenous linguistic and cultural groups: Inuit, Algonquian, and Iroquoian. The Inuit lived nomadically in the Arctic, hunting sea mammals and fish and building igloos in winter and tents in summer. The Algonquians occupied the Canadian Shield and lived semi-nomadically, hunting and fishing with canoes in summer and toboggans in winter. The Iroquoians lived sedentary lives in longhouses in the Great Lakes region, practicing agriculture and hunting with canoes.
