I think most peoples move around if they can. The Ice age melts probably did displace people as well as opening up new territory for colonization. One things for sure, southeast Asia is an important area full of surprises.

"Negritoid" means southeast Asian not African. I had a book from Indonesia that had a number of pictures of the native "Negritos". They really do look African but actually are one of the populations of people with the most genetic distance from Africa.

Well I stand corrected. However, in my statement I should replace the "black race" with Asian. Now the Asians should have the benefit of being the Native Americans.

"There was a report on CNN today about some stone tools and animal remains found in the Midwest that were in a level dated to 50,000 BP."

I believe you're talking about the Topper site in South Carolina that has been the news for the last couple days.
Check out the below link, 169 complete skeletons and 90 intact brains that contain the oldest DNA in the world. (According to the article)

Bye, Bye Beringia (8,000 Year-Old- Site In Florida)

These ancient mummies in Florida have 'European' DNA...according to a documentary I saw about this on TV.
