Who is the American paternal line? Have the descendants of the natives been exterminated? 40

Whether it is North America or South America, the mainstream ethnic groups in these countries are not indigenous but descendants of Europeans, mainly Spaniards, Portuguese, and of course, the British.

The Germanic peoples of North America occupied the living space of the Indians, and then interbred with Latin men, African men, and Indian women in southern Europe, and migrated to South America to become Latinos.

With the expansion of the living space of the Germanic peoples, the Germanic people interbred new Latin men and African men with new Indian women, and migrated to South America to become new Latinos, exterminating the original Latinos.

This is called American civilization, and the essence is that the Germanic people occupy the living space of the Indians.

Folklore is part of traditional culture, and there is no dross in it. The so-called dross is just not in line with the morality and ethics of modern society.

The formation of a folk custom must conform to the social form of the time, and is a concrete manifestation of the universally recognized values, outlook on life, and world view (ideology). Folklore is not static, it is constantly changing with the transformation of society. Some of them are passed down; Some were created for the sake of creation; Some were eliminated.

It's not dross that's being eliminated, it's just out of place.

Folk customs refer to the cultural matters that are gradually formed and passed down from generation to generation in the long-term production practice and social life of a nation or a social group, and can be simply summarized as popular folk customs and customs.

Patterning must not be arbitrary, temporary, or improvised, but can usually transcend time and space, which is the premise that folk customs have inheritance, extensiveness, and stability: an activity occurs here and now, and its activity mode is not a folk custom if it is not implemented by another person again; Only when the activity goes beyond the context and becomes the content of multiple people who do the same thing many times, can it be a folk custom that has been passed down from generation to generation. On the other hand, folklore has variability.

Folklore is a life culture, not a classic culture, it does not have a text, mainly by the way of hearing and seeing, words and deeds to pass on between people and generations, even under the same conditions, it can not be repeated unpleasantly, in the ever-changing life situation, the main body of the activity must be appropriately adjusted, and the folk customs have changed immediately. This difference is manifested in individuals and groups, including occupational groups, regional groups, and class groups, which leads to the industry, regional, and class nature of folk customs. If the time factor is highlighted, a generation or an era will inherit, change, and innovate the previous folk customs.

This change between time periods is the epochality of folklore.

It's tradition, but don't add the word culture.
