Three African fishermen caught in a thunderstorm ended up in Brazil's northeast. Only two arrived. One could not tolerate raw fish and starved to death.

They went fishing from Ivory Coast with food and water for three days. Once adrift they fished and ate raw fish and rain water.

This type of thing might have happened many times in the past and people would go after the ones at sea and ended up elsewhere.

Equatorial zone warm. You don'thave to carry life support system along with you. All energy available to hunt and move. No energy mispent in warming the body. Rains a lot and have lots of fish. Most likely a sea route than a walk across wilderness.

So you would be from the second wave if this theory is correct:

The chronology of migration models is currently divided into two general approaches. [4] [5] The first is the short chronology theory with the first movement beyond Alaska into the New World occurring no earlier than 15,000 – 17,000 years ago, followed by successive waves of immigrants. [6] [7] The second belief is the long chronology theory, which proposes that the first group of people entered the hemisphere at a much earlier date, possibly 21,000–40,000 years ago, [8] [9] with a much later mass secondary wave of immigrants. [10] [11] [12]

One factor fueling the debate is the discontinuity of archaeological evidence between North and South America Paleo-Indian sites. A roughly uniform techno-complex pattern known as Clovis appears in North and Central American sites from at least 13,500 years ago onwards. [13] South American sites of equal antiquity do not share the same consistency and exhibit more diverse cultural patterns. Archaeologists conclude that the "Clovis-first", and Paleo-Indian time frame do not adequately explain complex lithic stage tools appearing in South America. Some theorists seek to develop a colonization model that integrates both North and South American archaeological records.

>>My maternal ancestors walked from Siberia to North America.<<

Maybe they paddled along the coast in small boats...

First Americans may have been Alaska beachcombers
