The First Americans: Mounting Evidence Prompts Researchers to Reconsider the Peopling of the New World

On the Trail of the First Americans [Interactive]

These dates still don't go back far enough. Topper and others like it will rewrite everything.

I’m still waiting for one to show up wearing Nephite or Lamanite beads.

Charles Mann writes about this in his books “1491” and “1493,” the Americas before and just after the arrival of Europeans.

It took one helluva man to run up and kill a mastodon with a rock.

I don’t suppose the University of North Dakota would be allowed to rename its hockey team after these guys?

NCAA would go berserk..........

They left out the European Route.

Oh geez...here’s another group that’s gonna want reparations because of the atrocites brought on by those evil-white-European-criminal-invaders.

.. and the natural evolution of the tools -

The article even say s”Clovis people invented ...” -

They found a “Mitt 2012” bumper sticker on the rear end of the mastodon.

These clowns keep missing the vital point when it comes to extinction of the animals after all the glaciers disappeared. What killed them off was lack of water, once the glaciers melted the water rapidly evaporated with no way to replenish the supply. Since there wasn't enough water to supply all the animals, large numbers died out.

They quit having offspring because with the water, went the feed. This can be seen among the deer of today. If any given year is dry and the food supply low, deer will NOT have twins, and in many cases will not have fawns at all. In years when the food supply is plentiful, deer will have twin fawns. This is a well documented fact. A fact that scientists hate to mention when they are talking about extinction because they want to put the blame on man.

Evil man killed all the animals. There is no way a bunch of cave men using either bone points or flint points and using only spears, killed off any species to the point they became extinct. Nor did they kill enough of them to "aid in the extinction".

If men killed all the animals, why was there so much game in North America(not to mention south of the border)when the white men first showed up. Millions of buffalo, while they are fairly large they are nothing compared to Mammoths and Mastodons, so why were they still around? Not to mention, deer, Elk, Moose, Antelope, Bears(grizzly and black bear), wolves etc. Answer: Because primitive man, including Indians, couldn't kill them fast enough to wipe them out, even by running them over cliffs.

Once the herds had dwindled to the size the food and water could support the extinctions stopped.

This Journey Of Mankind constructed from the dna work of professor Stephan Oppenheimer shows humans exhiled at Meadowcroft 25,000 years ago. These must be the people with the 'European' X gene.
