Turtle Island (North America) DBWI

So, in Australia, humans made a huge mistake. When we got there we killed off all the Megafauna. Ie, useful domestication capable animals. So the Australian Aboriginals were trapped in the stone age. What if the Hahnunahs had made the same mistake? And the Turtle Island horse, the bison, and the lama had all been wiped out? What would thing have been like, if instead of the Europe/Arabia/Asia level of advanced sophisticated societies we met, we had found stone aged proto-nation dotting the western-hemisphere?

Even if Bison and the Lama had been eliminated we still have the Central American civilizations like the Mayans and Meshika which did not rely on domesticated Animals who are trapped in Bronze Age.

Well there weren't horses in the Western Hemisphere anyway. They died in the end of the Ice Age, before American humans.

Bison weren't domesticable, but they were a food supply for the Great Plains natives. We may have less of them.

Llamas, that's a different story. Inca's probably wouldn't exist. They would probably still be semi-sedentary hunter-farmers living around the mountains, but not to far up them.
