This is an absolute mess. The architecture, first and foremost, is very similar to that of chickees, a type of dwelling used by the Seminole, suggesting a swampy environment. Problem is, as you can see, the ground is solid. Furthermore, the lack of grass and earthenware vases in the background suggests a sedentary lifestyle, which is further supported by the craftsmanship present in the jewelry; you need specialized jewelers to get that degree of smoothness on gems. Speaking of, the blue beads are probably either aquamarine or chalcedony, the former of which isn't found in the Americas, and the latter of which is only found on the West Coast. In addition, the outfit of the person in the back left is reminiscent of a serape, a characteristically Mesoamerican garment. Looking in the front, the outfit of the foreground subject is similarly a mishmash, combining a skimpy breechcloth with a top only really comparable to those worn by Middle Eastern belly dancers. The quiver on her back means archery, which was completely unheard of pre-contact. The blue tassel hanging off her waist is again, a Mesoamerican thing, likely harvested from a bird of paradise. The feather in the hair of the guy on the right, meanwhile, is very Sioux in origin.

If I made any mistakes, please tell me.
