    The Bering Strait Land Bridge Theory

    Based on anthropological and genetic evidence, scientists generally agree that most Native Americans descend from people who migrated from Siberia across the Bering Strait, between 17,000�11,000 years ago.

    The exact epoch and route is still a matter of controversy, as is whether it happened at all. Until recently there was a consensus among anthropologists that the alleged migrants crossed the strait 12,000 years ago via the Bering Land Bridge which existed during the last ice age (which occurred 26,000 to 11,000 years ago), and that they followed an inland route through Alaska and Canada that had just been freed of its ice cover. There are a number of difficulties in this theory - in particular, growing evidence of human presence in Brazil and Chile 11,500 years ago or earlier [1]. Thus other possibilities, not necessarily exclusive, have been suggested:


    The migrants may have crossed the land bridge several millennia earlier and followed a coastal route, thus avoiding the ice-covered interior.

    They may have been seafaring people who moved along the coast, a theory disputed due to the relative lack of seafaring skills of peoples of this time period.

    The crossing of the Bering Land Bridge may have occurred during the previous ice age, around 37,000 years ago. This is also supported by the archaeology dating of some sites in South America prior to the previously assumed date of 12�14,000 years ago.
    Well I only went to Wikipedia where it said Columbus encountered native americans who were or boriqen dna, puerta rican, and eskimos, I didnt study it. But we have two different minds of thought anyway because I dont beleive humans have lived on earth 20+ thousand years not to mention millions of years.

      and there are defintely some pure blood black Africans in America.
      How did a race of people start in the Garden of Eden. GOD put them there.

        C'mon, man. Being called white and being called a nig*er is not even the same. Get real.

          I can live with that.

          but seeing that God made all of us, there are no real races, its just that different people were created with different characteristics.

          so why bother worrying about it, really.

              Am I the only one who does not care about prejudice? I
              just don't feel that one group of people should need the
              approval of another group of people.

              I feel if a people truly are comfortable with who they are
              they would not give a damn about how some other group felt about
              them it's like gay people getting mad when a straight person
              makes a rude comment about them. Why should gay people
              care about how straight people feel about them for example.

                [QUOTE=sonofisis;2915243]Because they wanted to keep them, duh! Don't you even know what the war was about?

                the racism that we all address started AFTER blacks were liberated, there were many reasons to it, but I think it was the combination of what Wells was saying and Dubois was saying.[quote]

                There was no transition in racism, the same form of racism forces the same kind of hatred.



                The 1 drop rule is apparent, but the point is that "inferior" doesn't equate "animal". All races were inferior according to those early scheme and it persisted as late as the 20th century.

                See Leonard Lieberman's How "Caucasoids" got such big crania and why they shrank. From Morton to Rushton., Curr Anthropol. 2001 Feb;42(1):69-95.





                But then your point is a bit mute, not much of an inferiority complex if they were willing to keep them with their wives, if they wanted to keep them SO MUCH, they would have just taken the ****** with them to war, right? And the ****** would not run away either, too.

                Next, racism is very different after the Civil Way, read Dubois and Ida Wells, they are very vocal about the change and why did the change occur.

                As for inferiority of races, you got to read about the Wages of Whiteness and how that was set up, but let me put it this way, blacks were at the bottom of the table, with other ethnicities making it higher in the table.

                      Obviously it didn't bother me since I'm black. He shouldn't have said it though. No black guy from the streets wants to lose from a white guy in anything though.
