Anthropological Discoveries In The 1920's

Archaeological discoveries made in the 1920s play a vital role in understanding how and when ancient Americans and their descendants resided in North America. Their culture and way of life. In the following paragraph I will discuss how the Folsom discoveries helped scholars understand the migration of ancient American into the Western Hemisphere, their origin as well as the geological condition that facilitated the migration. And finally how the interaction between Native American and the environment created a variety of culture that existed when Columbus arrived.
Since the First American have no written language, their migration from Asia through the Bering Strait to the Americas can only be figured out using archeological findings. As such the Clovis as well as Folsom discoveries played an important role in understanding how and when humans migrate into America. In 1908, in Folsom, New Mexico, a black cowboy named George McJunkin discovered bone pit which known as the Folsom archaeological site. In this archaeological site Folsom bone pit had excavated by
5). There are a number of evidences that show Native Indians migrated to the American continent from Asia.

Scientists were also able to prove that Native Americans are from Asia by looking at the human and other remains found at archaeological sites, and by looking at the DNA of Native Americans and Many Asians.The resemblance between Native Americans and Asian in their eye shape and hair also suggested that Native Americans are from Asia. Besides the “archaeologists’ discovery of abundant Clovis points throughout North and Central America in sites occupied between 13,500 BP and 13,000 BP provides evidence that these nomadic hunters shared a common ancestry and way of life”
