That’s the truth! Even if it was by accident, many groups stepped foot on these shores over the centuries.

You can’t help but wonder at the researchers who don’t realize people living near oceans were inventive and practical enough to know if they built a boat out of whatever was at hand and propelled it with paddles or a sail, they could follow the fish and seals and hunt them right there. Sea levels were much lower in the ice age, too-if a group was curious about what and who was “over there”, it wasn’t such a hazardous a trip if they could stay within sight of land-I don’t think they passed up the chance to find people to trade with for new stuff they hadn’t seen before-we still do that all the time...

So much evidence of people traveling, trading and breeding with other people on the other side of oceans has been found that it finally can’t be ignored-humans have always been intelligent and curious...
