@mammut Thank you for visiting. Which parts of the article did you find the most interesting?
@bibliolater the section on the White Sands - the critical comments and the rejoinders. Sharing the process of science was refreshing. It also got me thinking about Knut Fladmarks hypothesis and an article by Ruth Gruhn โLinguistic Evidence in Support of the Coastal Routeโฆโ that I read in the early โ90s. There was a lot of pushback in non-orthodox views of the peopling of the Americas. This article also pushed the boundaries - at least opened up the possibility of a much earlier date.
@bibliolater a well written and engaging article that challenges my current understanding.
