DNA evidence shows that human started from a central area and migrate around the world. This is theory but so far a logical guess.
Finding out where native Americans come from should not alter their culture presented on this land. No political or cultural superiority complex should be considered in finding the truth.

They wandered into North American around the end of the last ice age across the land bridge that then existed between Asia and Alaska.
That's why Native Americans look so Eurasian.
They are!

Thank you for asking this question but please do not believe anyone that says that Native people migrated here.
There is much more evidence to disprove the land bridge theory than to prove it. It is False information and it is aimed at oppressing Native people and making colonizers feel better for their actions.
Native people have creation stories much like Christians have their creation story told in the Bible. You do not have to believe in this but there is more evidence for the Native's version of events than there is for migration.
Please read Red Earth White Lies by Vine Deloria Jr. It will sheld light on this question.
And let me say one more time: People who believe the land bridge theory are seriously ignorant and need to go back to their science and figure out the truth, there is little to no scientific or other evidence to back this up. Please let us be educated!!

According to mtDNA and the Y-chromosome, they, like the rest of us originated in Africa. Their were 3 groups out of Africa. The first group wound up in Australia; the second group went to central Asia; the third group went to mid east.
the central asians splintered into several groups:
1) went into Europe 2) went into eastern asia and onto oceania (this might be its own offshoot though? 3) into siberia, where they mixed a bit w/ the australian strain.
This siberian group splintered a group that crossed over to northern america. It is mostly of central asian stock but mixed with traces of australian? Interestingly, the american indian languages have been organized into 2 families. the first is by far the majority -- like 90%; this ratio of the two language groups is similar to the ratio between siberian and australian dna markers.

Most came across the Bering straits from Siberia, but some crossed the pacific from Polynesia.

From China and Siberia. They came across the Bering Straits between China and Alaska when there was a frozen land bridge there.

We came from the Creator Great Grand Father, and were put here on this land. Bering Straits? Asia? Yeah right.
