American Indians had wide trade networks, seasonal farming and crop rotation, complex government, animal husbandry, fashion, art and relaxation, spare time....pretty much everything they needed for civilization. What they didn't have was Iron. The South American empires had some pretty advanced metallurgy, including bronzes and advanced alloys. Just no iron.
The north American Indians also lacked any viable livestock or beats of burden.
They did have and use dogs as beasts of burden, so that's not too far off.
Yea I've heard that too, but that's not something I would consider as viable. AFAIK they used them to haul some things (like sled dogs do), but they really can't hold a candle to things like horses and oxen.
