noticed a rough correlation in the Little ice Age, and the decimation of the american indian tribes in south america, looked up ice core data, after seeing that brazil once boasted a huge population that used a burn method of farming that was wiped out by european disease, can find all the articles if you want to look into it, have them bookmarked. The LIA aprroxamately started fifty years after much of south america's indian tribes in the amazon basin where decimated, also there was a noticable drop in CO2 levels at that time, of course it may have been just one of the contributing factors.. comments?
