Here's a possible explanation I made on the below linked thread

Letter From Newfoundland: Homing In On The Red Paint People

If you take this Journey Of Mankind developed from the DNA studies of Stephen Oppenheimer, near the end, he shows a group of people entering the NE US at Meadowcroft 25,000 years ago and then becoming exiled (isolated) during the subsequent Last Glacial Maximum(LGM), 18-23,000 years ago.
Now, if you believe that the oldest (undisputed) Mongoloid skeleton ever found is only 10,000 years old as Oppenheimer claims, then the people who arrived at Meadowcroft were not 'Native Americans' as defined today.
My suspicion is that they were (more or less) of the Ainu (Kennewick Man) body style (racial group) and may be the source of the halpogroup-X (some call it the European 'gene') shared only by some of today's American Indians and Europeans.
Most of the oldest skeletons & skulls (not exclusively) being found in the Americas are of the long narrow type associated with Kennewick Man. And, Oppenheimer say that the Obajiwe(sp) Indians of the NE US have the highest precent (25) of the 'X-gene' than all other Indians in the US.

So, might these people of the NE US, the Red Paint People and others (reported to be tall and lighter skinned) be remnants of this group from 25,000 years ago?

Absolutely.

Other truths:

North America was around 400 miles closer to Europe then

Seas were roughly 100M lower than now at LGM

Sea ice was fixed in position from Nova Scotia to the English Channel

Whales and game roamed freely between europe and north america.

There was no Beringa Ice Plug in the north atlantic.

Inuit have been crossing 2000 miles of solid ice and tundra (northwest passage) for 5000 years.

Artifacts are regularly found out on the continental shelf, but by law and ignorance are forced to be turned over to "native tribes" never to be seen again because they prove that the mongoloids were not anywhere near "first"

So, might these people of the NE US, the Red Paint People and others (reported to be tall and lighter skinned) be remnants of this group from 25,000 years ago?

Maun-gua-daus (George Henry), Chief of the Ojibwa Nation, ca. 1846-1848

Thank you for your post. The fact that the ancestors of long-headed (dolichocephalic) Ainu may have contributed to the European gene pool at some period should not lead modern Europeans to claim such people as found at Kennewick were “Caucasoid” Europeans who remain a predominantly mesocephalic and brachycephalic (broad-headed) population. This is the problem with present DNA analysis and European “scholarship” in general. They don’t use their heads!!
