People seem to forget that there was also an ICE bridge between Europe and eastern North America. People could have walked across the ice to the New World........................

The original colonialists

[Bob434]

Wasn’t it recently announced that some other group of people landed and established residency here before the Indians?

The author of one book I read was pretty confident that Native Americans traveled from Tadjikistan.

So they stole the land from somebody else.

“It’s not like you can say that they are really closely related to Japanese, Chinese, or Koreans, so there seems to be something missing”

What about Tibetans?

[Robert DeLong]

I’ve always said that they appear to be of Asian origin. Same goes for a lot of Hispanics as well.

The contrarian viewpoint is that the Western Asians are descended from native North Americans.

[TiGuy22]

The boy from Mal’ta had a pendant of a bird. Was it a Mal’tese falcon?

This:

“Although we know that North Americans are related to East Asians, it’s striking that no contemporary East Asian populations really resemble Native Americans,” Willerslev explained.

Is not particularly surprising. Those crossing the land bridge did so a long time ago and there may have been different waves of migrations with people of different backgrounds. Natives in South America seem to look much more like East Asians. It could be that natives in North America are descended from groups with more West Eurasian ancestry.

DNA continues to re write our history re who were/are!

[Pilsner]

I saw, many years ago, a story about how the many of the oldest flint arrow heads, and tools, found in North America, are very similar to those of a similar age found in North Western Europe, and dissimilar to those of a similar age found in North Eastern Asia.

If humans started in Africa, everyone outside of Africa is a colonizer.
