They made it all the way around the world first. The polar people move North to South and South to North with the movement of the great herds through the cycles of the advances and restreats of the glaciers.
As they move they spread their genes.
That's why the Eskimos look so much like the Samurai clans that dominated the area around Fukuoka for so many centuries (that, BTW, is the highest concentration of Emeshi on Earth). Darndest thing ~ you could be looking for Nanuk and find Hiro.
According to the Sagas, if I read them correctly, the far more recent discovery of America saw the birth of the first baby from a mother whose own father was the High King of Ireland.
The documentary pretty much concluded the way I would have concluded it. All the early skeletons in the Americas are not from Mongoloids, they came a few thousand years later.
Did you see this one?

Another map...I was under the impression most of these discoveries were taking place in the Moche Valley, but I can't see it named on the map.
Moche Valley - irrigation channels.

Would that site be Meadowcroft?
This is where the found a firepit, stone tools and bone fragments at 10,000 BP and decided to dig deeper, finding more specimens at lower and lower (earlier and earlier) levels.
I'm not sure, but I believe Meadowcroft was dug before the Cactus Hill, Va or Topper, SC sites.
Yes, Meadowcroft. JM Adovasio spent thirty years digging there. Below is his book on the subject. It's a very good book too.
Ha! After watching the show last night, I started to reread the very book you've posted here!!!!
Love it, Blam. great selection.
Bump for later
Great. I bet when you look out to sea down there, you have to wonder what's out under the water. Years ago you gave me a link to the Ice Age map ( I saved it to my hard drive, so still look at it from time to time. Love to put it on Google Earth), the one that shows the land as it would have appeared during the maximum glaciation last, and the sea level being 300 feet lower than today. As I look on this map at our Alabamian coastline, it appears that Mobile was as far from the sea then as Tallassee is now. Simply amazing. Wonder if those folks from 8,000 YA Florida ever made it up to these locales?
Which site and film are you talking about?
If you still have that, I'd love to have a copy of it back. I've lost mine in various computer shuffles.
"Wonder if those folks from 8,000 YA Florida ever made it up to these locales?"
Yes. I expect they were thinly populated but probably wide-spread.
You have FReepmail!
Here's the official excuse:
The State of Florida allocated nearly a million dollars for excavation and preservation, but now, a wealth of information lies cataloged and boxed at Florida State University because the state cannot provide additional funds for research. Additional research could tell much about the native Americans who lived near a small pond 4,000 years before Christ was born and 2,000 years before the pyramids were built or ceramics came into existence.

I haven't been to that site in quite a while. I like all the new updates.
