Answer:

The Calusa tribe in Florida planted rows of trees near its villages to protect against hurricanes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Calusa people lived in what is southwest Florida. They were known for being warlike and adept at engineering canoes and different ways of constructing breakwaters and other ways of living by the sea. The Calusas were also distinct among other Native Americans because they were headed by a hereditary king. The Calusa king had absolute authority although it is likely local chiefs had some local authority over their own villages according to archaeologists.
