How did people first come to the Americas?

The first people came to the Americas before 10,000 B.C. from northeastern Asia. We think that most or all walked across the Bering Land Bridge. It's also probable that some came by canoe across Bering Strait.

Thank you

Can please answer my other history question!

Well every body thinks it was Christopher Columbus,but actually it was people who walked over a huge land bridge during the ice age.Some people also think that they canoed over to America.

People first came to the Americas through a migration process known as the Bering Land Bridge Theory. Here's how to understand it:

1. Start by knowing that an ice age occurred around 20,000 years ago when a significant portion of Earth's water was locked in massive glaciers, causing the sea levels to drop and exposing a land bridge between modern-day Siberia (Russia) and Alaska (USA).

2. This exposed land bridge is known as the Bering Land Bridge, which connected the continents of Asia and North America. It was about 1,000 miles wide and provided a route for early humans to cross from Asia to the Americas.

3. Early humans, mostly hunter-gatherer groups, began to migrate from northeastern Asia to what is now present-day Alaska, using the Bering Land Bridge as a pathway.

4. As the ice age ended and the glaciers melted, the sea levels gradually rose and eventually covered the Bering Land Bridge, isolating the populations that had already migrated to the Americas.

5. Once in the Americas, these early migrants started to disperse, gradually populating the continent and giving rise to diverse indigenous cultures and civilizations.

The Bering Land Bridge Theory is supported by archaeological evidence, genetic studies, and similarities between indigenous peoples of northeastern Asia and Native American populations.
