Woman's bones could be the oldest ever found in North America | |
Los
Angeles :- Bones from an
ancient woman who lived on the Channel Island off Ventura County in Southern California
may be the oldest human remains ever to be found in North America, Scientists
say. The woman's bones join a growing body of ancient skeletal remains that challenge
traditional theories that the first visitors came here from Asia by way of a land
bridge to Alaska. The new evidence suggests that the first settlers could have
been Polynasians or Southern Asians who arrived by boat. Some of the recent remains
have features more typical of Europeans, Scientists say. |
