There must have been some contact between archaic humans and modern humans in Asia.

Isn't this language awfully judgmental? I mean, 'archaic' sounds so archaic. They had their own culture and who are modern men to say that one is new and one is old?

My guess is that these "archaic" humans were in fact superior to the so-called "modern" humans of the time. It is only a guess and a theory, but for lovers of ancient history such as myself it provokes the imagination.

The ancient world, and most certainly ancient America, was most likely a far more COLORFUL place than "professional" archaeologists, etc. with fancy academic degrees are willing to admit, especially those of a certain political persuasion who are so blinded by "political correctness" and their peculiar take on "multiculturalism," and by their concerns for the "loss" of aboriginal rights that an admission of the TRUTH would allegedly cause........but I digress.

Yeah, it's judgmental, and rooted in bigotry, and not rooted in the data.
