An article entitled "American Indian Oral Literatures" most likely focuses on

Answer
A
the reasons that early Americans recorded stories.
B
literature written in the American colonies during the 1600s.
C
primary source documents written by Indigenous peoples.
D
Indigenous stories passed down through spoken word.

Explanation

“Oral literature” refers to stories, songs, and other forms of expression shared through speech rather than primarily through writing. So an article titled “American Indian Oral Literatures” would most likely focus on Indigenous stories passed down through spoken word. Choice C is less fitting because it refers to written documents.
