There was a show on I think the Science channel last week about this very subject and that was the conclusion. The nomads stayed close to the food along the edge of the ice and followed it. Twist is that there is some proof that the same thing happened from Europe also and DNA studies will prove or disprove that. BTW the world wide MDNA study is concluding and very close to done. The word in the world of DNA scientists is that it will turn many old theories on their ear. We shall see.

DNA studies can tell only which genes exist now, and that only in the sampled people. It doesn’t give geographic origins, or even much in the way of ancestry.
