Who were the first Americans? 

Much of this information is outdated or not entirely true, a new video may need to be made.

It’s crazy how much better at videos, mostly the narration, you have gotten in just 2 years of this channel. Keep up the growth homie!

"The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence" - Ed the third -

i love how more footprints were discovered in new Mexico like 22,000 years ago

Your channel is underrated. So entertaining!!

When I was a kid in the 50's, it was still controversial to speak of Man developing in Africa. Also, anyone who dared to say that man came to NA before 10,000 yrs ago was a lunatic. Not only those points, but public science was still believing in Mars as being habitable and only scientists who were invested in the space program doubted that. Though without evidence to back it up. So much changed in the next 20 years, and continued to change over the past 50 years. There is much to discover about US and our planet. There is a need to be skeptical, but not STUPID!! :D

Very cool that you were so far past "Clovis First" 3 years ago. I think a sequel to this video is about due as discoveries keep pushing the timeline further back. In particular recent fossils strongly suggesting Homo Erectus was to some degree seafaring. I have always found the assumption that our ancestors walked everywhere unimaginative since a boat is a much shorter jump in creativity then a wheel or domesticated pack animals.

Great job. I’m binging all your videos. Really well done.

Great video! Just what I wanted.

It’s is so fun watching you learn and grow with both knowledge and video skills. I’m loving it

Thank you for this! I have to study on this topic!

If there were an ancient hominid in the americas pre homo sapien then it would fit my hypothesis that “wild man” stories (Sasquatch, Almas, Orang Pendik, Yeti) are a cultural memory of non-sapien homo species interacting with Homo sapiens.

Is making videos about all these topics just a hobby for you? Or have you studied this stuff, I love them btw ( :

Archaeologists in Argentina recently found 40.000 years old human remains in Catamarca province. Please check it out

All I have to say is gods damn Jeremy soul is the greatest artist ever

Make a part two :)

Fascinating regarding the macedon bones! Thankyou,

You almost lost me in the 1st couple of minutes with your focus on "the men" ... but I stayed. Nice video, nice summary of facts :-)

fascinating can you do a video like this except focusing on native Australians ???? these kinds of videos are like crack to me lol

Respect for the Skyrim music, damn now you make me want to play it.

in 2021 - human footprints discovered in White Sands Natl Park New Mexico - have been dated to about 21-23,000 years ago - they were dated using seeds found in the stratigraphy

well no doubt the first 'Mericans came from Asia. I'm 60% European / 40% Native American. On my mum's side you can clearly see the high cheekbones, darker skin, less facial hair on her side of the family, while on my dad's its just the opposite. My cousins from Mexico are blonde hair/green eyed Basque Kelts! Anyway my DNA was traced to NW Spain/SW France AND from the plains of Central Asia! Interesting stuff!

I think there was something about the Clovis people were wiped out by an asteroid inpact. Or, some kind of Tunguska event . . . larger than Tunguska actually, but still not quite an impact - kind of interesting.

This is why we need to be much more careful about applying labels like "First Nations" and so forth. Chances are extremely good that the so-called FN groups are just the most recent cultures to have overrun the previous groups of occupants. Even the term 'Native Americans' is problematic -:it's not as if they sprouted from the soul, the NA groups just moved in here like everyone else. In time, our modern notions about these peoples will prove just as antiquated and confused as those of previous centuries.

Along with your unattributed "the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence" (probably William Wrigt, 19th century), you might add to your repertoire: "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." (Attributed to Carl Sagan, but the idea dates back at least to Jefferson.) The diehard defense of the Clovis First folks was that there wasn't enough evidence to indicate people in this hemisphere earlier: this was proven false primarily by the eventual discovery of LOTS of such evidence -- but also (as you note) the presence of a human footprint in Chlle, both earlier and quite far away from the Clovis First folks' evidence. "The great tragedy of Science is the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact." Thomas Huxley But the 130 kya mastodon bones at Cerruti aren't quite like that Chilean footprint, dated 15.6 kya. Just the fact that it IS a human footprint (and that old) indicates the Clovis first theory is wrong -- even though one possible explanation is that people came down the coast further (and earlier). The find can MODIFY the Clovis First theory (as some of those folks have tried), but the weight of other evidence has driven Clovis First beyond recovery.

North 02 have you heard anything about the indigenous peoples of South America having genomes that are related to the Aboriginal people of Australia, but the people of North America don’t?Graham Hancock mentioned it.

The meadow Croft rock shelter in Pennsylvanian is believed to of been continually inhabited for almost 20,000 years

Clovis people crossed over the Atlantic from Northwestern Europe. Clovis arrow and spear heads ate similar to those in Western Europe made by Cromagnon, no similar heads found in Asia

That would go to Amerindians

Well, not _anything_ is possible. 😉 There weren't any aliens involved, for instance. 😄 But this was well done, covering not just what is known to be almost certainly true, but what could be true if newer evidence turns out to be accurate, too. Well done!

Red Indian...

Thanks a lot

Stephan Milo's take on archaic humans in the Americas makes me more skeptical. It would be cool, but the evidence is just not there yet.

And then came the Solutreans around 24.000 years ago......:)

So basically Asian people became native America and they became darker and had bigger eyes and became a brand new race.

Denisovans in the americas before us?!? Wow now thats amazing

America is a Continent not a Country. There is not a Country named America. United states people call themselves Americans. Anybody born in the American continent is an American. From Argentina to Canada

No one, The IQ test has been a bad one, We've always been here LMAO native Americans weren't neither native or American

So you live in Alaska?

Finally someone that brings up the fact that there is evidence of much older civilizations. I don't think it is ridiculous to think we have been here 100,000 years ago. You are using the same Clovis First logic. I would recommend the book "America Before" by Graham Hancock.

😊

If the Clovis people crossed the artic land bridge show me one spear point from the area. They don't exist.

We came out of genesee river Newyork the oldest tribes

yesss

Every new thing seems great. But, as old as friendship is Yes, the better and stronger. - Aristotle.

One thing who i dont understand is How this "peacefull" people who come by bering strait become so brutal like astecs or another south American natives who pratice sacrifice rituals and canibalism like in ancient Brazil 1400-1500s when portuguese and spanish arive , the tribes tupi-guarani have a common cultural canibalism of eat their enemy to become more powerfull and Brave , this us dont see to much in North American natives before colonialism.. its a Crazy fact who always i think what these people sufer to become so brutal at this point ..

Terminator pig is at 5:00. A very cool 6 min. if you have the time. Interesting.

O:56....please note that the “men” who crossed to the Americas were also women ...and children!

T

So the first americans were the ancestors of native americans that live in America today?

What if those mastodons were butchered by Bigfoot🤔

Is that music from Skyrim?

JUNIOR...... never say never ! yes you are much better... thky dan t.

This continent didn’t have a name and there were no countries here back then

So basically no one really knows who was in the Americas first.

People always inhabited America before any migrations

Who did these first Americans kick out? Truth is … we really do not know…

Would be amazing if like erectus was here, maybe he adapted to have hair and big feet 😆😆

who were the first americans

So I’m here for soc science

Great videos, it would be nice if you included the wording women when you describe peoples and not just “these men”

Did they have domestic k-9's and had them pulling sleds ? Then they wouldn't need an ice free corridor they would need snow and ice to travel on !

When people migrated to USA there was big land connected Alaska to Russia which time by time collapsed and you can only see under water now, first people moved here Asians , they moved from North America to South America population was big . There was already back and forward movement from America to Europe, Christofor Columb did not find this land which was already well known place . Made up histories are just simply shit , You need to learn how land has been changed last few hundred years and you’ll get an idea

Could have ridden, not could have rode.

Humans were placed

It's Bigfoot!!

Could denisovans have originated in usa

I liked the way you batted down the--to me--nonsensical theories of EVEN. Will go back to watching the rest of this video. (BTW, Cordillera is pronounced core-dee-YAIR-ah. It's Spanish.)

Work on correcting your semi-literate English usage before trying to convince us that you are an authority on anything.

Wow

Grammar check your work. "May have came"?

Dude you mentioned a highly competitive landscape, if they where first who did they compete with, let me help you, AFRICANS

Caucasians from Europe. Same as the Bask and Celtic people

There are multiple sites in the 'lower 48' and even much further south that are thousands of years older than Clovis. Read James Adavasio's book, "Strangers in a new Land". If you really are a paleo-aficionado, you know that. Unless you're just reading this stuff out of a book to make a RU-vid channel.

Siberians

The first Americans were red headed giants, before the Clovis people crossed through Alaska and moved south killing off the remaining giants that survived the ice age and taking their land.

The theory in regards to a pacific origin don’t match up with the time period of which austronesian (pacific Islander and most south East Asians) expansion occurred, the linguistic links also don’t exist with the shared genes likely occurring relatively recently via trade routes from eastern Polynesia

During the ice age there were people, which were from northern Asia

Look Pima ant Pawnee apache Cherokee puma ants here North Asia the ground i walk on Lord Adam Pima God's first people pharaoh stole from Goshen California

Im adam DAS Pima moglee Cain Alladan Joseph pharaoh Achilles Ishmael Moses Isaiah Gidian Jesus Christ im DAS again yaw yaw yaw

There were no Denisovans, nor any other king of bipedal hominoids in the Americas (maybe Bigfoot).

🦖🖤🐌🖤🦖

I don't think they were brutal I think they just over hunted and didn't realize what they were doing humans are the most destroying a destructive animal that ever lived on this planet my ancestors didn't do any better they're all to blame

Why there are different human colors ?

The first peoples in the Americas, were called, the Fa-cowy. They wandered around for years, wondering where the.... fa-cowy.

It could have been the other way around

I guess you forgot Neanderthals

Native americans have always been in the americas. The bering straight is 1/8th the population the rest is purely native outta the soil.

You lied

How about coming from Europe across the Atlantic Ocean?

“These men...”, you stuttered it several different times... so men procreated without women? Are you reading you high school social studies report? You need to improve your grammar. The phrase “human may have come”, not “came”. Then your use of the phrase “the lower 48” isn’t really fitting in this context since you pointed out yourself that you were talking about “the Americas” and I have only heard US Americans use this term. Shouldn’t you have said “the Americas” here?

Pima land North Asia theafs ants have Pima mole like the people Pima mole left side spine

List of people that discovered America, NorthEasternAsians:~35000-15000BC(debated) Vikings: ~1000 Polynesians:~1200 Columbus:1492

And again “would have broken”, not “would have broke”. Broke=past tense. Broken=past participle.

May have come, not may have came. Came is the past tense, but not the past participle (which goes with auxiliary verb “to have”).

You know your science.

They were White/Caucasian/Caucasoid

Hominid is not human so as many others hominids species maybe got extinct so the theory of Bering or Clovis are still in the game.

Americas reached by: A) Beringia B) Oceania C) both?

You all aren't going back far enough...
