American Indians

You've almost got it right. Those referred to as the Clovis people were the first across the land bridge- and they remained to absorb those who came later by the same route- and vice versa- to become the indigenous North American people- the First Nations.

Now please don't try telling me again that I ' agree ' with any deviations from that scientific truth when I clearly don't. Thank you.


So what we have- to summarize- is an influx of people from Asia who became the first humans in North America who were followed- many thousands of years later- by a bunch of European palefaces who think today that THEY are Americans and that the indigenous Americans are not.

It's enough to make the Great Spirit laugh.

Thanks for agreeing that the Clovis people were the first to immigrate to North America; but they did no absorb those who crossed later, because the inverse is true.

But then, those who followed the Clovis people more then likely committed genocide against the Clovis people.

The known archaeological record is unequivocal: homo sapiens reached Siberia and northeast Asia first, about 40,000 to 50,000 years ago, then reached the Americas about 15,000 years ago.

Any other claim about the chronology of events is sheer speculation unsupported by a plausible body of evidence

Homo Sapiens are from Africa and started migrating into the near east and central Asia about 100,000 years ago, reaching northeast Asia by the middle Paleolithic about 40,000 years ago

It's all sheer speculation!Because no one can say what went on in N.America,before the ice age.

Since humans didn't originate in the Americas, it's pretty obvious which way they traveled first.

I've just discovered that the iconic etchings, paintings and photographs of ' noble savages ' astride their horses are very misleading. There were no horses in North America until the Europeans imported them.

That's true. However so far the fossil record doesn't show any evidence of human residence in the New World prior to the last Ice Age.
