Line	Exactly when in the early modern era Native
	Americans began exchanging animal furs with
	Europeans for European-made goods is uncertain.
	What is fairly certain, even though they left
(5)	no written evidence of having done so, is that
	the first Europeans to conduct such trade during
	the modern period were fishing crews working the
	waters around Newfoundland. Archaeologists had
	noticed that sixteenth-century Native American
(10)	sites were strewn with iron bolts and metal
	pins. Only later, upon reading Nicolas Denys’s
	1672 account of seventeenth-century European
	settlements in North America, did archaeologists
	realize that sixteenth-century European fishing
(15)	crews had dismantled and exchanged parts of their
	ships for furs.
	By the time Europeans sailing the Atlantic coast
	of North America first documented the fur trade, it
	was apparently well underway. The first to record
(20)	such trade—the captain of a Portuguese vessel
	sailing from Newfoundland in 1501—observed that a
	Native American aboard the ship wore Venetian silver
	earrings. Another early chronicler noted in 1524 that
	Native Americans living along the coast of what is now
(25)	New England had become selective about European
	trade goods: they accepted only knives, fishhooks,
	and sharp metal. By the time Cartier sailed the Saint
	Lawrence River ten years later, Native Americans had
	traded with Europeans for more than thirty years,
(30)	perhaps half a century.
