To accurately compare the Native Americans' viewpoint of land ownership with the Europeans' viewpoint, we need to assess each statement and determine which one is the most accurate.
A. Both the Native Americans and the Europeans believed that land ownership was a right given to each adult by their birth.
This statement is not accurate. While Europeans generally believed in the concept of individual land ownership, Native Americans had a more communal perspective towards land, where it was considered a resource for the whole community rather than being individually owned.
B. The Native Americans believed that land could never be owned by any human while the Europeans believed humans could buy and sell land.
This statement accurately highlights the main difference between the Native Americans' viewpoint and the Europeans' viewpoint. Native Americans had a more complex relationship with the concept of land ownership, often considering themselves as caretakers or stewards of the land rather than individual owners. On the other hand, Europeans believed in the ability to buy and sell land, treating it as a commodity that could be acquired or transferred.
C. Both the Europeans and the Native Americans believed that it was impossible to own land because it was owned by everybody on Earth.
This statement is not accurate. Europeans generally had a concept of individual land ownership, whereas Native Americans had a more communal view of land, as mentioned before. It is also important to note that the statement about land being owned by everybody on Earth is not reflective of either viewpoint.
D. Both the Europeans and Native Americans believed that owning land was a sign of wealth and freedom.
This statement is not entirely accurate. While Europeans often associated land ownership with wealth and social status, Native Americans did not necessarily view land ownership in the same way. For Native Americans, land was more of a shared resource, and factors such as wealth and social status were not solely based on land ownership.
Based on the analysis, the most accurate statement is:
B. The Native Americans believed that land could never be owned by any human while the Europeans believed humans could buy and sell land.
