The Dawn of Everything calls the “fisher kings” of the pacific northwest foragers, and also the “protestant foragers” who lived in what’s now California. I don’t see much info about their population density.
I’m about halfway through the book, and I’m unsure how much to trust it.
I was also including the foragers who built Poverty Point (a structure about 1⁄3 the size of the Burning Man area), but I see now that they were no longer around in 1500.
The book also indicates that many regions, particularly in Amazonia, are hard to classify, because they did small amounts of “play farming”, without getting much food that way.
