Accepting the Piri Reis maps, Antarcia is shown without ice. Antarica is probably the Atlantis of legend. It may also be the home of ancient man. None of the dispersal theories and conflicts in man's age from China vs Africa are adequate explanations.
What excludes Anartica is the darwinism which prevails in thinking - slow evolutionary change vs cataclysm. The darwinist hold the seats of authority - professorships. But, they are wrong.
The Zuni's also have stories that might relate the the Phoenicians or Carthaginians (same people). These people controlled the sea lanes of the Mediterrean and beyond for 1000 years or more. They settled Sicily, Marsilles (Massilia), Southern Spain, North Africa...
What, no blam? ping
There is a book of published black-and-white photographic images of southern California indigenous peoples taken circa 1900. I was surprised to see that most of the faces were entirely different from each other and some resembled Australian indigenous peoples.
There may be a copy of this volume at the Livermore Public Library in Livermore, California.

There are presently in the San Francisco Bay CA area several rock construction sites (12 foot-high walls buried to their tops) that stretch from along the hillsides from Orinda to San Jose for 30 miles which predate the native tribes arrival here thousands of years ago here and were chronicled by a missionary nun who interviewed the Ohlone tribes here centuries ago, published partially in the local newspaper, the 'Argus', of Hayward, CA circa 1986 with photos. Remnants of this wall may still be seen in back of The California State University campus at Hayward,CA and also next to a nearby housing development on "Barn Rock Road" (the farmers dug up the huge stones and used them as barn foundations.)
Also on Mt. Tamalpais just north of San Francisco there is a circular cairn of upright megaliths around which trees have grown and encompassed located on the western edge of "The Meadow".
There is also evidence in the eastern US in early French
construction engineers records of circa 1740's searching for suitable cliff faces to blast in order to obtain building stones for the forts they were building.
The local Iroquois captives from their Algonquin allies
said to the engineers, "There is already a cliff face that has been made into thousands of pieces."
Sure enough, the French engineers were directed to a cliff face that had thousands of 1-to-2 meter blocks
of granite apparently blasted out and laying in a neat
tumbled pile.
The Iroquois told the engineers that this huge pile was here before their ancestors had arrived here.
Directly across from this quarry is another rock face blasted out. Directly due east from the first cliff face an inverted trapezoid \___________/ 1 mile+ long has been cut into the 500 foot high mountaintops. On the spring solstice, the sun rises directly in the center of this trapezoid when view from high mountains directly to the west \____*o*_____/.
John Miller of National Review, commented on the Kennewick Man controversy (a few years ago): ancient America was possibly and very probably a far more colorful place than the postmodern liberal (with all of his political correctness, multiculturalism and "anti-racism") is willing to admit.
