In the history of the Americas, the pre-Columbian era spans from the original settlement of North and South America in the Upper Paleolithic period through European colonization, which began with Christopher Columbus's voyage of 1492.
Usually, the era covers the history of Indigenous cultures until significant influence by Europeans.
This may have occurred decades or even centuries after Columbus for certain cultures.
Many pre-Columbian civilizations were marked by permanent settlements, cities, agriculture, civic and monumental architecture, major earthworks, and complex societal hierarchies.
Some of these civilizations had long faded by the time of the first permanent European colonies (c. late 16th–early 17th centuries), and are known only through archaeological investigations and oral history.
Other civilizations were contemporary with the colonial period and were described in European historical accounts of the time.
