In particular, these Pre-Columbian civilizations can be said to have established characteristics such as permanent or urban settlements, Agriculture , and Complex Societal Hierarchies . Many of these civilizations had long ceased to function by the time of the first permanent Europe an arrivals (c. late 15th - early 16th Centuries ), and are known only through Archaeological investigations. Others were contemporary with this period, and are also known from historical accounts of the time. A few (such as the Maya ) had their own written records which can shed light on their development and history. Where they persist, the societies and cultures which gave rise to these civilizations may now be subtantively different in form to that of the original. However, many of these peoples and their descendants still uphold various traditions and practices which relate back to these earlier times, even if combined with those more recently-adopted.
