From where did early North Americans migrate and how did they reach North America? Describe the lifestyles of early North American men and women.
Im not sure which way to answer this one. I have two answers. The first was coming from Asia and crossing the land bridge at the bering strait. But my gut is telling me that this is not the answer but the answer is coming from Europe by boat since the third part of the question asks about lifestyles and the only thing we know about those coming from Asia was that it was during the ice age so I don't think the answer about the land bridge is correct. Help please
"From where did early North Americans migrate ... " <~~That alone tells you the question is not referring to Europeans who came by boats.

Your first answer is correct. The first people in the Americas came from Asia, probably by walking across the land bridge at Bering Strait. There's also evidence that some came in small boats, following the northeastern Asia and northwestern American shoreline.
The first Europeans in America were the Vikings about 1000 A.D. They didn't leave much of a settlement.

•Do you think that the Korean War was merely a civil war in which the United States supported one side, or should it be considered an international war in which the United States used the United Nations to further its anticommunist policies? Why?
You're on the right track, but let me clarify the details for you. The generally accepted theory is that early North Americans migrated from Asia to North America. During the last Ice Age, which occurred around 20,000 years ago, sea levels were lower due to the amount of water frozen in glaciers, creating a land bridge known as Beringia across the Bering Strait. This allowed humans to travel from Northeast Asia to what is now Alaska and eventually spread across the Americas.
Archaeological evidence, such as tools and artifacts, supports the theory that the first settlers came from Asia. However, there is ongoing debate and research into other possible migration routes and earlier human presence in the Americas.
Regarding the lifestyles of early North American men and women, it's important to note that there was significant regional and cultural diversity among the indigenous populations. The details of their lifestyles varied depending on factors such as the environment, available resources, and cultural practices.
In general, early North American societies were hunter-gatherer societies, relying on hunting game and gathering edible plants for sustenance. They also developed various technologies, such as tools and weapons made from stone, bone, and wood, to aid in their daily activities. Many cultures also developed farming techniques, leading to settled communities and the growth of complex societies.
Gender roles varied across cultures, but there was often a division of labor based on sex. Men typically hunted game and defended the group, while women were responsible for gathering food, preparing meals, and caring for children. However, it is important to recognize that these roles were not rigid and could vary significantly between different tribes or societies.
In summary, early North Americans likely migrated from Asia via the Bering Strait during the last Ice Age. Their lifestyles consisted of hunting, gathering, and sometimes farming, with gender roles generally divided along lines of hunting and gathering responsibilities.
