K, if you will indulge me. Considering that the person in question is well known for "elaborate falsification of poster's statements" as well as "delusional revising of history" why do you not have him on ignore? As for Native Americans migrating from China, that is in error since the baseline haploid group found in Native Americans is distinct from the primary Asian populations (China, Japan, Korea etc.) but common with the people of the Mongolian steps. However, it must be noted that the Clovis point culture, which is the earliest long term culture in the Americas, share connections to a European group in the design of arrow and spear points. As Clovis culture human remains have been rare, and those found (with current technology) cannot be accurately tested for DNA, the indications are there were two distinct migrations to the Americas. It must also be noted that the Clovis culture died out after an apparent continent wide series of wild fires, which indicates to some that there was a significant impact on the Laurentide ice sheet that covered most of North America at the time. However, it is also interesting to note, that the prevailing language groups of Native Americans are distinct from any of the various Mongolian groups known today. It is also interesting to note that the common haploid group shared between Native Americans, Mongolians and the natives of the Russian steps can be traced to a migration out of eastern and central Europe, about 75000 years ago. Some of the extremely latent, secondary genetic traits that periodically show up in Native Americans include blue eyes and lighter skin tones, about 1 in every 400,000 births. As a side note, the genetic study, part of the National Geographic/Smithsonian human genome tracking project, shot the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints contention that one of the lost tribes of Israel landed on the coast of South America and was the basis for many of the pre Colombian civilizations, since there is no shared haploid group between the natives of south America and the peoples of the middle east. Another note about the study, brought up by subjects tested from Queens New York, is that genetically speaking, with the exception of the distinct haploid groups, as tracked through mitochondrial dna which is passed down to every human from their mother, is that there is a less than 1% difference genetically between each of the human races. That small percentage is due to environmentally driven mutations, i.e skin color, eye shape, body stature, although it is postulated (but far from proven) that these could also stem from interbreeding with the two other human species, Neanderthal and Denisovans (distinct human species found in China.)
