Archaeologists discovered eight temporary camps in the Sierra del Mayor mountains, in the Mexican state of Baja California, that date from 400 to 7,000 years ago, the National Anthropology and History Institute, or INAH, said.
In the camps associated with the Cocopah culture were found hundreds of animal bones, some from extinct species, ceramics, stoneware, and places where iron oxide was mined to make pigment for murals and body painting.
The discovery took place in the rocky recesses of the Sierra del Mayor south of Mexicali, capital of Baja California, after three years of explorations with the collaboration of the Cocopah Indians.
Some of the camps were occupied by people the researchers call “indigenous archaeological Cocopahs,” who lived between 400 and 2,000 years ago, while others from about 7,000 years ago belonged to nomadic groups that preceded the Cocopah, the INAH said.
Further sites exist in other parts of the Baja California peninsula, but this is the first to be discovered in Cocopah territory on the Sierra del Mayor, the INAH said.

Wait...so Mexicans really don’t have a claim to CA, AZ, NM and TX because, according to their own logic, they are not the indigenous people?
These are the indigenous people:
The reason Americans became immigrants to former Spanish owned Tejas, and then Mexican owned Tejas, is remarkably simple. For those Americans willing to become members of the state church (RCC) they got a great price on fertile land ~ and both the Spanish and the Mexicans had a great admiration for the American ability to take raw land, live under horrible primitive conditions, withstand the worst weather on the planet, and produce crops like there was no end.
One of the things that helped Americans settle the area was also simple ~ the earlier Spanish settlers had brought in cattle, pigs, chickens, goats and other domesticated animals, and they thrived even without humans around mending fences. American settlers in Texas ate well!
“These are the indigenous people:”

That being said, God only knows how many people lived in what is now the US.
The History Channel has had some programs on the subject.

Mr Ditter and I hunted mule deer in Mexico, across the Bay of California from Baja. I am an avid arrowhead and artifact hunter. While Mr Ditter was scouting the area for deer, I was watching the ground for arrowheads. After a week of walking and looking I found absolutely nothing!
My folks have a site in front of their house with points that go back 10,000 years.
Ah since you brought this up
In that May 3rd speech Obama gave before the Mexican Anthropological Museum in which he blamed America for the violence in Mexico I believe he went even futhur. There’s a inference but never referenced by name to the Gasden purchase and border settlements US made with Mexico where Obama hinted he seems to side with the Mexican claims. Would those in attendence share that view is a question that should be asked, because I believe they would,.he does.
The Mexicans have been getting most favorable treatment above the rest of our neighbors both north and south. They’re permitted to cross our borders and enter illegally and are allowed access to rights of citizenship (with the exception of voting which if the democrat party regains control over the House will happen) other nationals entering this country don’t get.
Also by allowing Mexicans to do this any quota ration for immigration from other south and central American countrys are taken up by Mexicans while that country is laying claim to a large chunk of our sovereign territory.
We are already seeing the result of this in certain areas claimed by the Mexicans. Their national flag (standard) gets displayed over ours. Where there is a controlling number of Mexican nationals (illegals). It’s displayed over certain institutions particularly schools accompanied by riots and disturbances. Blacks are threatend by Mexicans in certain sections of citys in those areas. We’re courting trouble by not placing a value on our sovereignty and our citizenship.
Worse yet if a US citizen goes into Mexico never mind illegaly but legally. They’ll get 2nd class treatment. Land ownership in title is prohibited period. And there are a slew of regulations they must comply with. Which doesn’t apply to a citizen of Mexico.
By not insisting on reciprocity particularly on those who have entered this country illegally we’re offering no incentive for assimilation and we’re not easing the burden for our fellow citizens who for what ever reason decided to live in Mexico.
I am sure one of the things our Alien Overlords offer us is a humor implant

FYI. Little known cave paintings of Baja.
"The archaeological record for Pericú territory extends at least as far back as the early Holocene, about 10,000 years ago, and perhaps into the late Pleistocene (Fujita 2006). The distinctive hyperdolichocephalic (long-headed) skulls found in Cape Region burials have suggested to some scholars that the ancestors of the Pericú were either trans-Pacific immigrants or remnants of some of the New World's earliest colonizers (González-José et al. 2003; Rivet 1909)."
"The skeleton's age has been estimated by radiocarbon dating by Silvia Gonzalez of Liverpool John Moores University.[3] Her C14 date is 10,755±55 years;[2] that is, she lived 10,755 years BP.[4] She is one of the oldest human remains found in the Americas.[5]"
"Gonzalez theorizes that Peñon woman is related to the historic Pericú people of Baja California, who also shared similar physical traits."
"Of additional significance is the shape of the skulls, which are described as long and narrow, very unlike those of modern Native Americans."
They’re either going to have to drop indiginous or change its meaning to mean the ones before the ones now.
Re: “Land ownership in title is prohibited period in Mexico.”
The second largest immigrant group in America is Filipino.
Americans are also prohibited from owning land and small businesses in the Philippines.
And thousands of fake US Social Security Cards.
