fyi
Can reparations to Paisley-Americans be far behind?
It's a dirty job but some body’s gotta do it.
Everyone born in America is a native American—American Indians were here before Columbus but there is no evidence ANY of them were in America before others...
...there are no scientifically empirically proven original humans any where on earth so the term “Native American” as popularly used is a politically motivated mendacity.
Mexican footprints cause scientific stir

AP LONDON - British scientists claimed on Tuesday to have unearthed 40,000-year-old human footprints in central Mexico, challenging previous studies that put the arrival of the first humans in the Americas at about 13,500 years ago.
I've always inclined to the theory that they were made by Paleo-Merovingians.
Well...surprise....the deeper they dig, the more they will find.
Humans are humans since they became humans, whenever that was. There have always been engineering types, geek types, inventors and builders...that's what humans do.
There also have always been deadbeats, of evolutionary name:
Democrapipithicus.
They developed early and have remained unchanged.
The oldest human remains found in the Americas were recently "discovered" in the storeroom of Mexico's National Museum of Anthropology. Found in central Mexico in 1959, the five skulls were radiocarbon dated by a team of researchers from the United Kingdom and Mexico and found to be 13,000 years old. They pre-date the Clovis culture by a couple thousand years, adding to the growing evidence against the Clovis-first model for the first peopling of the Americas.
Of additional significance is the shape of the skulls, which are described as long and narrow, very unlike those of modern Native Americans.

The most recent discoveries at this site are even more advanced than expected.
Poo don’t lie.
So where does that leave “Wrong-Way” Heyerdahl?
Native Americans arrived ...
Huh? If they arrived from wherever then they quite obviously were not native.

Yah... This is not news. The author needs to upgrade his sources. Even when I was studying this sort of thing at grad school in anthropology in the mid-80s, there were several sites dated much older than Clovis: Meadowcroft Rock Shelter in Pennsylvania, at least 16,000 years BP, perhaps 19,000 years BP; Monte Verde in Chile (way south in Chile!), perhaps 33,000 years BP, at least 15,000 years BP). Clovis is not the first culture of humans in the new world, just one of the easiest of the old ones to identify. This “established fact that Clovis were the first Americans” crap is just that: crap. (Think global warming...)
