Well if you want to go back 13,000 years, the people of Russia and Asia who came over on the frozen ocean. other than that... the vikings had several settlements in Canada but were driven out by the "savages". Chinese have stated they manged to discover America but there is no evidence of their claims. there are also theory's of Africans settling in south America as recently as 4000 years ago. there are many reports of Pacific islander influence in the Western Hemisphere. as far as I know the only true evidence of "discovery" or settlement of the Americas were the Norse in roughly 1300, 1400, 1500 AD in New Foundland. I hope this is of some help.

There is good evidence that the vikings did i.e. a settlement in Nova Scotia.
There are enigmatic carvings that may be Knights Templar or some other group. There is some indication that some carvings are Hebrew.
Kennewick man, about 9000 years old is thought to be Caucasian.
Then there are the ancestors of the Native Americans coming over from Asia.

Africans!!???
Thats pretty funny! They never even advanced to the bow and arrow stage or built a simple dug-out canoe.
I guess that must have been back when they could fly before YT stole their power.
