  1. The Earliest North Americans How Did They Get Here?

  2. “Out of Africa” Theory

  3. Beringia Land Bridge Theory

  4. Polynesian Sea Theory

  5. Solutrean Theory-Spain Approx 14,000 ya

  6. CLOVIS POINTS-NEW MEXICO 13000 years ago.

  7. Cactus Hill Points-pre Clovis Great similarity with Solutrean points. Older than Clovis points (15,900 years or 16,000 years ago, which is right in the middle between Clovis and Solutrean)

  8. Solutrean Points 18,000 years ago

  9. More proof-Mitochondrial DNA • Most DNA tested Native people in Canada were found to be linked to Asia. • However, the Ojibwe were found to have DNA that was more linked to Europe. • Were these the descendants of the Solutreans? Was there really an early wave of immigration that came from Spain?
