5. Reread this text from the section about the Pueblo people. Then answer the question.
“Pueblo homes were modeled after the cliff dwellings of the Ancestral Pueblo. They are cube-like rooms stacked on top of each other. Wooden ladders outside of the rooms were usually used to get from one floor to another. Sometimes the bottom floor would have no doors or windows, and a person could get in only by climbing a ladder. This made the structure easy to defend because the ladder could be pulled up. Pueblo buildings were usually home to several families and had connecting shared rooms.”
What do the details in the text suggest about the Pueblo people?

6. Reread this paragraph from the text. Then answer the question.
“Southern California’s deserts do not have this same wealth of resources. There, groups such as the Cahuilla, the Serrano, and the Chemehuevi adapted to use the few plants that grow in the desert.

By digging ditches to feed into small lakes, the Cahuilla made use of the limited rain to sustain a vibrant culture.”
How did Southern California Indians like the Cahuilla traditionally obtain most of their food?
