How did the Native Americans get to North and South America?

Answer 1

Humans as we know them today started in Africa and spread North and East. Some of the migration went far north, and east eventually accross the frozen Berring Strait into Alaska today. The people had to be following animals since they needed food and clothes,and maybe better weather!
The National Geographic Society is involved in a very large researh on DNA and have traced certain DNA strains following these routes and they are proving to be true.Once in North America the men and women kept going to the tip of South America.

Answer 2

If you look under the Bering Strait you will see a stretch of land that is rather close to the surface. In the last ice age, the water was pulled out of the oceans and heaped on land in the form of glaciers. This drop in the ocean level exposed this "land bridge" across which a small party of Asians walked. Scientists studied the mitochondria of Native American women and determined that there were not more than four women in the original party.

Answer 3

Very very long ago, there was a great bridge of ice connecting Russia and Alaska. Since settlements had yet to be invented, the people followed their food (Mammoths mainly) across this ice bridge into Northern America and some continued down to South America.

Answer 4

Many year ago, the Bering strait dint exist as we know now. it was land. the Asian people arrived to north America by that land.
they where nomads, so they moved from one place to another. some of the nomads stayed installed in chosen places, and kept going so on, going down and doing the same thing until they got to south America.
that is why, in a sense they look alike, but with the personal trait, given by the climate of different assessment's

Answer 5

They imigrated here along the coast. There has been evidence found in the shelf off of southeastern Alaska that supports this idea. There has also been arguments made that there were several migrations that resulted in the weaker tribe being displaced into less desirable regions. I think that is mostly correct, but I THINK that there may have been transoceanic immigrations from Indonesia.

Answer 6

Through the land mass connection between Alaska and Asia, by the seaways of the Pacific, the seaways of the Atlantic.

Answer 7

They came from a distant planet called Indianus. That is why we call them Indians.

Answer 8

They walked, like most of our ancestors did.
