Tried the "Who Was First" site---thanks for the link. Funny how it talks about how "some" people have claimed the reconstruction of Kennewick Man had "Eurasian" [sic!] features, as though whoever wrote the copy on the site couldn't bring himself (or herself) to write "European"!

"Euroasian" may be a correct defination. He is believed to have been closely related to the Ainu (presently living in Japan) who are believed to be descendents of the Jomon.(all of Asia) Kennewick Man had dental features like Europeans and unlike present day American Indians or most Orientals. Kennewick Man and those like him were in North America, at least, 3-4,000 thousand years before the present day American Indians showed up in the skeletal record. (REF: Ancient Encounters (Kennewick Man) by James C. Chatters)
