"small family of nomads likely used it as a campsite"

Think they were Indians? If not, look out for trouble.

"Conventional wisdom has been that people came across the Bering Strait about 12,000 years ago."

Let's think outside the box: Maybe people migrated "from" the Americas over the Bering Strait, going "to" Asia. Why is it always assumed that people came from Asia to the Americas?

Conventional wisdom has been that people came across the Bering Strait about 12,000 years ago. But Mandel said the northwest Kansas dig means "we're rethinking not only when people arrived, but where they came from."

One if by land and two if by sea?

Back to my same old dreary song... It would have been easier for early man to have walked (hunting and fishing) across the Atlantic ice sheet from "Europe" to North America than from "Russia" across "beringa" to north America. And it would have been about 5-6KY earlier.

The fact that the Atlantic was 300 miles narrower, and the seas 300' lower, seems to escape academia.

Buried by 12,001 year old dog. That's old in dog-years.
