In Taiwan, Korea, Finland, and Japan there are aboriginal people who lived there before the Chinese or other Mongoloid Asians. The Lapps of Finland may have mixed with these people in ancient times. These aboriginal people's hunting habits, clothing, and camp culture are exactly the same as North American aboriginals. Their appearance is also very similar. I don't know about the language. Many Ojibway in Canada have similar noses and ears to Easter Islanders or other Polynesians and look in other ways quite similar. The probable closest ancestor to the North American Aboriginal is the eastern pacific Polynesian. Their skin, hair body form and face physiognomy is very close. Hawaii is not very far from North America and as Thor Heyerdahl proved, it can easily reached by reed boat or outrigger canoe. If you travel north in Canada, you will see in the Nahanni areas people that you could very easily mistake for Japanese. It is obvious that not all North and South American Indian races have the same ancestry. It seems that there is a mix. Peruvians don't look that similar to Cherokee, and Brazilians of the Matto Grosso are different still. We really don't have any proof that some man may have originated in the Americas. We don't have an Olduvai gorge, but I see no reason to suppose we should have found that yet. This does not deny ancient immigration from 30,000 years ago, or more, and from different sources and routes as well. It is a fascinating study, man' origins, and ancient history and it is really sad that today's aboriginals want to block that archeaology frequently by political means. It doesn't get them anywhere to do it. EC<:-}
