Mass transportation, of course. That's the answer to everything, isn't it?
By the way, everyone, Sunday is Double Double Dessert Dessert Day Day. Do your part!
why would they have to 'get across'?
The continents were once joined, for one thing.
For another, why is it always assumed that because, for tens of thousands of years no one in Europe knew there WAS a north and south America - ergo, no other people - that, after discovery, any people here had to've come from the old world.
Why?
Why couldn't there have been people on these continents from the beginning also?
man is arrogant.
About 18,000 years ago, there would have been an ice "coastline" from France to New York. I've read suggestions that early settlers could have made their way along that.
I have no idea but land masses and geography might have been different than now.
Why is it written in stone that they had to have 'come across"?
Just becasue the existence of the Americas was unknown to the Old Wold for centuries - doesn't mean they couldn't have had their own people all along.
Seems odd that they wouldn't...
