Meaning that the 30,000 year old human activity in South America shows that the first (known) Americans spread north and across the Bering Sea into Asia. See, that’s how ya do that.
Such a brilliant conclusion these scientists have come to. For most of us I believe this revelation simple deserves the comment, “No sh.t Sherlock.”
‘She came across that land bridge from China so you know where the batteries were made. ;-)’
LOL. I see you have used them too.
The skeleton is but one data point. It does not exclude other origins. To assume a linearity of all populations is fallacious.
By that definition there are no native humans outside Africa. This girl is from a population of humans who migrated to the New World and evolved into various peoples. By my definition that’s about as native as you get.
BTW - Pliestocene Europeans didn’t look like modern Euros either.
14 different Temples® have had proxy baptisms for this person.
SLC is just SURE that he(?) has accepted it's offer!
DNA proving she(?) was Jewish...

I WAS ready to jump in; after reading the title; then wavered over choosing Hillary, but decided she wasn't QUITE dead yet.
Also some matrons...
Is it possible....

Could it be???

Just because she came from Siberia doesn’t mean no one from anywhere else came to the Americas. Sheesh.
Mitochondrial (mtDNA) = D1 in this case. For reference and for anyone interested. I am going to look to see if I have any (distant) cousins who have it (I am not kidding). I do genealogy and have had my DNA tested. It is VERY hard to find/get samples for American Indians, apparently, because of cultural reasons etc.
