A study of the oldest known sample of human DNA in the Americas suggests that humans arrived in the New World relatively recently, around 15,000 years ago.

The report fails to reveal they came through the porous Mexican border.

Finally, a clue as to the identity of the schmuck that started glo-bull warming.

I'm really confused by the article:
Either the rate of mutation was much faster than generally accepted, OR, the author is stuck on a 15,000 year time line and assumes that it is evolution/mutation that varied (greatly) and not his concept of when the human record bagan in the Americas.
The rest of the piece seems merely to brag about the importance of his line of inquiry.
When the results are perfectly ambiguous, I'm not too sure about the value of the inquiry.

Wrong?

This makes sense. They liked the west coast, surfing, the parties on the beach, the laid-back lifestyle. Why cross mountains and deserts to get to where? Tornado Alley?

only one percent of modern tribal members have genetic patterns that matched the prehistoric sample

So where did these people go and where did the modern tribes come from? They weren't related, it seems.

First Americans Arrived Recently

Thisparticular Early American arrived maybe 15k years ago. They can't stanch the leakout by generalizing an admitted 15k years.
