Native Americans have been saying this forever. They didn’t cross the strait 10,000 years ago. They’ve been here much longer. Their oral history in the Americas goes back before the last ice age.

Stuff like this is always so interesting to me. I love looking back in time and we won't stop making discoveries like this in my lifetime. It's an evergreen section of history.

Was just about to say this. I always love this stuff. I saw an article that there's an ocean underneath our ocean that was just discovered. Just gives such a weird feeling reading this stuff

Crazy to try to fathom that something you are looking at was left by a real person with parents and a favorite color and thoughts and feelings…20,000 years ago.
