Kennewick Man ‘could have been Asian’
Seatle Pi Science Blog ^ | 08/25/2014 | Aubrey Cohen

Posted on 08/25/2014 4:30:08 PM PDT by Kid Shelleen

Researchers spent 16 days poring over Kennewick Man — the skeleton found on the bank of the Columbia River in 1996 — in two visits to Seattle’s Burke Museum in 2005 and 2006, after a court ruling permitting the study.

Since then, they’ve said little about what they’ve learned. A new, 688-page, peer-reviewed book, “Kennewick Man: The Scientific Investigation of an Ancient American Skeleton,” changes that. Texas A&M University Press is scheduled to publish the book in September.

This is funny:)

after Kennewick six more skeletons were found in the U.S.....all white.....several here in minnesota...It would appear that 9000 yrs ago all whites were hunted down and killed as evidenced by the lack of white dna in any of the tribes”traced back to 6 birth mothers”...the gov. apparently got worried?...when kennewick was found................ He died from a spear tip in the hip....bones were confiscated immediately after carbon dating placed his age at 9k.”before the tribes were here”. ..........When scientists were allowed to study them again everything from the waist down was gone...”lost”....later the gov. proclaimed the remains were “native”.................So it would appear....that whites came here..............were all killed.............thousands of years later....the whites returned sporting a higher level of tech...pushed half the indians off their land....enslaved some...and subjugated many.... .......................... ............Now here is the Kicker......Most of the indians here did not die from violence they died of disease....influenza ,small pox,various pneumonias that the whites had resistance to......If the brown people had allowed race mixing with the original white settlers” instead of hunting down and killing every single one of them”THEY would have passed immunity to many......... “white man” .......diseases down through the generations.....................and would not have suffered such catastrophic losses............................So what can humankind learn from all this ?..Well not a lot....because modern political “wind” has encouraged the complete suppression of the truth in this matter.......................If full understanding of the consequence paid by the indians for extreme RACISM practiced 9000 years ago HAD been allowed free public rein .....maybe attitudes about RACISM would have been HONESTLY modified...but thats just- not- how- things -work -these -days. oh well..............................................

Your ignorance is colossal. Ancient White people in the Americas would have been just as susceptible to European Disease as any other race. Immunity comes from exposure, not from race.

I live in SE Asia and to me it is astonishing how similar the people here are to the Indian tribes of South America, look at modern people from Java and the Indians of Peru and you see the identical faces. It stands to reason that people must have sailed across the Pacific to the Americas, or as you say walked across via Alaska.

It is hardly rocket science to figure out that native Americans came from Asia because quite simply they look Asian. Believing, however, as we are told to believe, that Europeans are all descended from Africans, well that’s a harder one to swallow.

The diseases weren't "white man" diseases. They were European or Eurasian diseases. Twice in history ASIAN diseases nearly wiped out the Europeans.

Kennewick Man and his brethren could well have been Asian and Caucasian-"white." The Peoples from whom almost all Europeans descended come out of Asia in waves of conquest way back to the Gauls and Celts then the Goths and Germanics. How about those red haired tartan clad Europeans found in the desert sands of Mongolia?

Caucasian - Caucasus - Asian.

The Smithsonian Magazine had this version of the report:

Who Were The Si-Te-Cah

"Lovelock, Nevada, is about eighty miles northeast of Reno. It was in a cave near here, in 1911, that guano miners found mummies, bones, and artifacts buried under four feet of bat excrement. The desiccated bodies belonged to a very tall people - with red hair. "

Vintage Skulls

"The oldest human remains found in the Americas were recently "discovered" in the storeroom of Mexico's National Museum of Anthropology. Found in central Mexico in 1959, the five skulls were radiocarbon dated by a team of researchers from the United Kingdom and Mexico and found to be 13,000 years old. They pre-date the Clovis culture by a couple thousand years, adding to the growing evidence against the Clovis-first model for the first peopling of the Americas.Of additional significance is the shape of the skulls, which are described as long and narrow, very unlike those of modern Native Americans.
