[求助大神！]prep这道题里面的not…but的意思不懂！

今天在看prep时有一道题是讲部落变化什么的，其中这道推断题让我很不解：
这是此题所涉及原文：
The dominant view in recent decades has been that family hunting territories, like other forms of private landownership, were not found among Algonquians (a group of North American Indian tribes) before contact with Europeans but are the result of changes in Algonquian society brought about by the European-Algonquian fur trade, in combination with other factors such as ecological changes and consequent shifts in wildlife harvesting patterns.

题目是：It can be inferred from the passage that proponents of the view mentioned in the first highlighted text believe which of the following about the origin of Algonquian family hunting territories?

AThey evolved from multifamilial hunting territories.
BThey are an outgrowth of reciprocal land-use practices.
CThey are based on certain spiritual beliefs.
DThey developed as a result of contact with Europeans.
EThey developed as a result of trade with non-Algonquian Indian tribes.
正确答案是D
可是原文不是说了并不是和Europeans的contact造成的（not ……but blah blah）？那为什么还要选D呢？
请大神解释一下这里的not ……but到底是什么意思？
谢谢谢谢！！

这题如果你把那些乱其八糟的词去处掉的话还是蛮简单的,基本意思就是
family hunting territories, 不是 found among Algonquians blah blah blah,而是the result of changes in Algonquian society brought about by the European-Algonquian fur trade
问题问的是 origin of Algonquian family hunting territories，从上面来看其实只要看but are后面那段话就可以，从but are后面那个意思总结一下可以看出D是最符合的
not... but....在这里是“不是。。。而是。。。“的意思

那个我是个菜鸟哈~~~说一点我觉得这题的解法。我觉得这是一道取非题。首先说你找的not but没错。但是选项里没有和European-Algonquian fur trade相关的选项。只能去前面找，意思是说contact之前没有found，取非就是contact之后found。。所以是d。。

嗯……也就是说not……but
一般都是当成不是，而是的意思吗？

只是菜鸟，我觉得这句话应该从语法角度看，
but是连词并列连接 “...were not found among Algonquians (a group of North American Indian tribes) before contact with Europeans”和“are the result of changes in Algonquian society brought about by the European-Algonquian fur trade...”2个分句，not...before..是第一个分句中的内容。不是not...but...的关系，而是...but...的关系
