There is an ancient tribe in Japan that has very Caucasian features. Did they come from the west or did they evolve their “unasian” looks independently? How knows.
One theory is that this is the people that made their way to America, probably in boats.
Maybe they sailed there in Noah’s Ark ...with all the Kinds
LOL
Anyone ever consider that DNA links Europe to Native Americans and they have it backwards? Native Americans didn’t come from Europe. Europeans came from Native Americans. This has been my contention all along. They are doing history backwards.
Grant Money is forever. All you need is an opinion. If you differ from your buddy scientist..all the better...you both get Grant Money.
The archaeological record in Europe is 10x as old as that of North America.
Cool idea, though
We’re all very different people. We’re not Watusi. We’re not Spartans. We’re Americans, with a capital ‘A’, huh? You know what that means? Do ya? That means that our forefathers were kicked out of every decent country in the world. We are the wretched refuse. We’re the underdog. We’re mutts!

And run.
Western Asia is Turkey.
Sounds like a lot of Istanbul to me.
Who really cares? Will this sublimate American Indians now into that hated class of European Origin White Anglo Saxons?
Will it take away their special sovereignty that allows them to steal from Americans via their gambling reservations?
Will it change their preferential treatment in most any government consideration?
[I am 1/16 Cherokee, BTW. but that’s not good enough to be ‘made’ in the Indian Mafia]
They are the Ainu, the original inhabitants of Japan and they probably descended from siberians. Many of the original Ainu had red hair. The population is now largely mixed with the East Asians who subsequently settled Japan.
That’s my thought as well. Eastern Native Americans look a lot like Europeans while Western Native Americans appear more Oriental. They originated here.
They have ignore North Ameica for years because they simply accepted the theory that this country and continent were settled from without. I never accepted that premise and I don’t accept it now. Archaeology in North America has been lacking and still, as of now, we are the undiscovered country. Just watch. There are more than a few surprises awaiting those who accept theories with no basis in fact and the Bering Bridge was one of them.
Don’t tell ME you didn’t cry when Ol’ Yeller died.
1/32nd was good enough for the Mashantucket Pequots of Connecticut and they would still give you a preference in hiring and promotion if you went to work for them. If they had’n’t screwed to pooch and driven Foxwoods Casino into the ground so nobody is getting hired or promoted.
Actually a whole lot of Amerinds have french in them - the voyageurs did not bring their wives along unlike he English. Made the cultures get along much better. French were pretty sturdy folk back then. Still are in Quebec. See NHL.
I'm glad you added that "probably in boats" part - don't think they had direct flights back then.............
Archeologists have finally revealed what Asians of European ancestry who later migrated to America looked like!
