I’ve always wondered why it is presented that one distinct population did what no one else ever did when coming to North America - that of walking, vs coastal boats or sailing like everyone else did.

Must be some huge investment in the land bridge theory that they just don’t want to let go of. Considering that you’ve got some of the richest waters for sea life off the coast, it’d take a truly dedicated hunter to chase after mammoths or whatever the excuse is this week.

All of the principal Archaeological systems are of the nature of religious tenets. It is how the “soft” sciences are done. Those who grew up with a theory will fight a new different one with their last breath. It is as if a theory is disproved then an archaeologist’s life is suddenly of no account. His discoveries and fame become dust.
