[h1]Paintings found in Brasil and Mexico challenge Bering Strait theory[/h1]
· October 9, 2013
It has been commonly accepted among scientist that the first people that migrated to the Americas came across the ancient Bering Strait bridge that crossed from Asia to Alaska during the last Ice age.
But new artifacts discovered in Brazil and Mexico have debunked that theory.
Archaeologist believe they might have migrated from Africa. Other artifacts were also discovered in Mexico and Chile showing communities that were developed thousands of years ago. UNESCO has granted the Mexico site a world heritage site.
SHO' YA RIGHT!

There will be at least a 100 items on display, which will include cave paintings and pottery that shows hunting expeditions, ceremonies and images depicting the sex lives of this ancient group of the first Americans.To date, these are the oldest traces of human existence in the Americas.
