Humans have been on this planet for at least 200000 years.
Of course they populated the American continent more than 30000 years ago.🤔
Gypsies
Arrived 30,000 years ago.....and still waiting for their luggage.
May have been 100,000 years earlier. Denisovans or Neanderthals. See https://www.newscientist.com/article/2129042-first-americans-may-have-been-neanderthals-130000-years-ago/
I’ve always wondered about how scientists discovered the baseline of carbon dating. Kind of like the chicken and the egg. Don’t scientists have to start with a constant?
OK kids, follow me on this one. There was an ice age and a Bering Land Bridge because a lot of the sea water was frozen as glaciers so there was a lot more shore line than there is now. Humans were migrating from Siberia across the land bridge. Do they continue inland where everything is frozen and there might not be much food or do they stick to the coastline where they know there is a lot of stuff to eat as they move south? I would have stuck to the shoreline. Eventually the Earth starts to warm and much of that ice melts back to water. The land bridge is flooded as are most of the coastal settlements. We’ll not find any evidence of these coastal settlements because they are all under water now. However, if the ancient humans migrated far enough south along the coast they eventually would have reached areas without glaciers and could have easily moved inland. Mexico was never glaciated. See how easy it is to be a scientist?
The writers of this article knows not of the discovery in the 80s in South Carolina that shoved man’s presence back in NA to 50KYA, nor the discovery in San Diego area in 1992 along State Route 54 that shoved it back to 130KYA.
This is how Big Foot got here too.
Hey! Johnny come lately, GET OFF MY LAWN!

The Were Rabbit has struck again, eh, Doc?
Fascinating!

Funny you should ping this as I’m watching an episode of America Unearthed where they are talking about bog people in Florida and that Europeans could have and most likely did follow an ice sheet from France to North America and down the coast line some 7,000 - 13,000 years before the Clovis people came from Asia across the land bridge in the west.
I’m not suggesting that the Hueyatlaco site surveys weren’t inaccurate or debatable...
...but this demonstrates that they NEVER should have shut down debate on the matter by closing off the site and burying the research under a literal façade of dirt (development) and bureaucratic stonewalling to protect the ‘settled science’ of North American archaeological history (the latter being dripping sarcasm).
I can’t recall the documentary name I watched on the dig over a decade ago, but the Mexican government literally permitted development of the site, including housing and bulldozing of the dig.
Coincidentally, both the Tehuacan Valley site and the (former) Hueyatlaco site are near the city of Puebla, Mexico. The OP article makes no mention.
Curious. /s

Most of the world was populated by migrants from the Great Rift Valley in Africa, the cradle of mankind.
So the Dutch were first to the Cape. Does that make them native or indigenous?
He who frames the issue, wins the issue. We have created these classifications like native Americans to further the narrative that the land was stolen from its original owners. It is the language of social justice warriors. Illegal aliens are undocumented workers. You can define your gender or lack thereof using pronouns. The Orwellian use of language is a means of control.
Despite the fact that 85% of us were born in the US, the phony claim that we are a nation of immigrants is repeated over and over. What nation is not a nation of immigrants? What does being first mean? What is the area defined? A valley? A continent? The Indians didn't occupy every part of North and South America. And they were certainly not there originally. They migrated from Asia.

Hope you and pups are doing ok.
I wonder if they had beagles 30,000 years ago?
Them bones them bones them chicken bones.
Them bones them bones them ...

Life [or Lucifer] is dumping on me again.
Dog has been tested repeatedly, turned out to be hypothyroidal.
Taking meds for that, now.
Vets said he should have a cardiac exam so we took him 2 weeks ago but they couldn’t manage him and it got rescheduled to next Monday.
So then the torque converter on the “dog car” started acting up, don’t have money to fix it.
Only car left is the PT Loser which the dog doesn’t fit in, let alone is able to haul all three of us over 100 miles of big mountains with the AC running, because the day of his new cardio appt. is calling for 95-98 degrees.
I’m to the point of randomly crying in inconvenient places.
Stress, I reckon.
They probably did have something like rabbit dogs, of a sort.
Dogs have always been with us, thank God.
