WHERE DID THE FIRST AMERICANS COME FROM?

According to research, human beings have been moving from Eastern to Southern Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. During this time, they have traveled to Europe and Asia populating a new world. However, the big question is, how did human beings land in America when it is so far from away from the other continents? Anthropologists argue that millions of years ago, human beings originated in what today is Ethiopia and Somalia. Scientists have studied fossils and trails that predict humans crossing a land bridge between Asia and North America around 23,000 years ago. This land bridge was a land that connected Asia and America together.

There are many theories about where humans originated from to the new world, but thanks to the DNA analysis, there is now likely an answer. A new scientific study analyzed the human genome from 31 Native people and found that 23, 000 years ago people moved from Siberia to North America, which eventually split into two groups. One group moved to North America while the second group moved to Central and South America. The genetic information also found that Native Americans had a small mix of genes from East Asians and Australo Melanesians Australoid. The Melanesians consisted of two racial classifications which consisted of Southeast Asian, Papua New Guineans, Solomon, Islanders, Vanuatuans and Indigenous Australians. Furthermore, this explains how human beings traveled so far from their origin and many different populated places. History has allowed to study why some people have stayed and others have continued their journey elsewhere. In conclusion, we can see how human beings slowly but surely began conquering the world.
