What evidence is there that Native Americans also have non-Asiatic ancestry?

Question

What is the evidence for the theories that there may have been migrations by sea perhaps from Africa, the Meditterannean and from Asia after the land bridge was again submerged?

Answer 1

a few years ago

an archeologist found Native American weapons and ceramonial gear that had Ogham runes on it... the Ogham were only used by one people in history, the Celts. specificaly the Druids...

this could be a physical connection of a spiritual connection,

the artifacts found were in virginia and were some of the oldest Native American artifacts found to date.

like i said this was a few years back that i saw the article in msnbc, i cannor remember it's title. or i would list it as a source.

Answer 2

There is a theory that the Native Americans are descendants of Hebrews who tried to escape the Babylonian invasion, but they seem most likely to be the descendants of Asiatic nomads who crossed the Bering Strait. There's no conclusive evidence to their ancestry at all either way.

Answer 3

i'm a bit vague on this but i seem to remember reading that there were some linguistic connections between da na (is that right?) and basque. the idea seemed to be that like the inuit, the basqe were seafaring hunters during the last ice age and made it across the atlantic by following the ice. and that the stone tools found in north america seemed to resemble european stone tools rather than asiatic ones. i don't know whether its true or not, i've never seen any follow up.

Answer 4

There is no definitive evidence for that. In the '70's a guy named Thor Hyerdahl proved that it would have been possible by sailing across the Atlantic in ship made of papyrus reeds and navigating by the stars, but that doesn't necessarily mean it happened.

If you are thinking of Kennewick man, found in sediments along the Columbia river on the west coast, it was eventually determined that his ancestry was Asian.

Answer 5

A book* was published in 1830 attesting that two separate civilizations had immigrated to the American continent and both their origins were from Jerusalem.

The oldest of the two came over by ship around 2200 B.C. and the second group--two families--came over the same way about 600 B.C. The first of the civilizations warred among themselves and were all killed to the man. The second group had split because of huge religious differences and the more barbaric of them had later annihilated the other around the year 385 A.D.

These peoples were the ancestors of much of our American Indian as we know them today.

Answer 6

I know it was concluded that the Kennewick man was listed as Asiatic in nature....but I still can't deny the fact from all displays and presentations provided to me that he looked exactly like Patrick Stewart (aka Captain Jean-Luc Picard). Is he also Asiatic in a labeling system?

I wish we all could know.

Answer 7

i'm nonaboriginal and that i trust you. There are, in spite of the incontrovertible fact that, non-Indians (my American Indian acquaintances confer with themselves as Indian so i've got long gone lower back to utilising the non-workstation be conscious) who're observed formally by way of families interior of First countries and do stick to the approaches of the individuals. in the 1800's, those human beings might have been seen contributors of the individuals. this is purely now that we insist on differentiating. As to how God sees it, who's conscious. Am I Christian if I stay a Christian way of existence, stick to each and all of the precepts, etc, and yet replaced into in no way formally acknowledged as such by way of a church? i do no longer think of this question has as elementary an answer because it may look beforehand each and every little thing look. i've got theory approximately it plenty in the previous, and the greater i think of and the older i'm getting, the greater tolerant i'm of the various the thank you to attitude a cultural/non secular way of being. additionally - community American is called a generic term, including African. If I pass to Africa and stay there and artwork their for 2 an prolonged time, am I African? Are the whites whose families have lived various generations in Africa African? the respond will become differnt in case you point out a particular First u . s . a . (Indian tribe) and stick to a criminal definition. i be responsive to there are various Indian wannabees. I additionally be responsive to that lots of them, to a undeniable quantity, are not purely posers, yet are searching for as genuine a direction to God as they are able.

Answer 8

There is more evidence of the southwestern tribes having connections with Central and South America.
No conclusive evidence that I have read, it all seems to be hypothesis.

Answer 9

none conclusively, its mostly an attempt to justify the displacing of native Americans and taking over their lands
