Read the following passages:
My eyes scanned the plains where I had hunted bison, the
creek where I had gotten water. They could no more take
this land from me than I could give it freely. It was never
mine to give, and I had never thought that I owned it. I used
it in accordance with what the gods had given me. And
now I was being forced to leave.
Understanding of property rights among American Indians

land deals did involve the exchange of money or goods
(rather than just taking land by force), misunderstandings
about ownership often led to conflict.
Which of these best describes how the historical description enhances a
