Anthropologists refer to these communities in different ways including: 1. Cartier is an explorer and arrives as an explorer in 1533 and 1534. He did not come to settle, he came as an explorer to see what was happening in the colony and report back to the french crown about what he found and what kind of resources they had. 1608 champlain: arrives to france and makes settlements. None of the guys expected to settle. However all of them that come, they come by themselves in many of their cases they end up abandoning their wives in their won homes and marrying someone in the indigenous community. Europeans negotiate with indigenous men which the men liked because it gave them power. The british now colonize (british machineries now came)
