The study of ancient and historic indigenous peoples has been increasingly well-developed, and there are academic classifications and conventions about documentation through archeology and written records. For instance, peoples who are identified through archeology are generally referred to as participating in an archeological culture. There may be chiefdoms and groups of bands, such as the Uzita, but they do not comprise a nation state in any contemporary meaning of the word. It is Original Research, prohibited on Wikipedia, to make up a new way to classify them, as was done on a previous infobox. This approach is not supported by Reliable Sources, which we as editors are required to use. Editors need to read enough to understand the context for materials on the indigenous peoples.Parkwells (talk) 16:07, 26 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
