The people living in America prior to 6,000 years ago were different people than the people we (today) call American Indian/Native Americans. Any people prior to that period should be call paleo-Americans, not Paleo-Indians.

Perhaps, this could be Ainu? The oldest Indian remains were 6,000 years old. Kennewack man was 9,000 years old and he was Ainu likely.

More of my theory of early man in NA proves true - however most of the remains of civilization between 18,000 YA and 6,000 YA will be found out on the continental shelf. Many of these artifact "anomalies" have been found off the east coast while treasure hunting, but have been hidden away because it disproves the ancestral claims of many native americans.

My general Theory is that is would have been easier to walk to NA from europe than asia, because of the extreme low level of the seas during the glacial periods. tribes could easily hunt their way around the ice shelf and exposed land masses between the two continents.

ancient peoples who roamed the Southwest - may have seen the Gulf's final rise

Evidence of prehistoric global warming. Obviously (since they didn't have horses to ride) they ran around in gas wasting SUVs.

Cabeza de Vaca was shipwrecked on the Texas coast (probably Galveston Island) in 1528 and survived to write an account of his experiences. The Indians of that era seem to have led a wretched existence and were often hungry. A couple of tribes had the custom of killing their newborn daughters, and acquiring wives by buying women from other tribes.

"The people living in America prior to 6,000 years ago were different people than the people we (today) call American Indian/Native Americans."

Just curious but why wouldn't these Paleo-Americans be the Native-Americans (or Indians) grandparents ?

Are there any sketches or pictures of these artifacts? Some of the best points I have ever found came from up river from this spot, on the Mexican side.
