The first Americans were from Southeast Asia and the southern Pacific area. Evidence for that is in Brazil someone found a skeleton that is 11,000 years old and did not match with American Indians but, it did match up with the Aborigines people of Australia. People believe that they came to America by boat.

1. Why did early humans come to the United States?

Early humans came to America looking for new hunting areas and new land.

(Mcgraw Hill 6)

2. Who were the first Americans?

For a long time, people thought that the first humans in America were the Clovis people that came over on a land bridge from northeast Asia. However, recent discoveries of fossils in Brazil, that they named Luzia, indicate humans that came from Australia about 11,000 years ago were the first Americans.

1. Why did early humans migrate to North America?

There could be a lot of reasons  why early humans migrated they could have not had enough food  so they wanted to find new hunting ground, they could have been trying to find a place that had a better climate, they also could be trying to find good places for growing crops. These are some of the reason why early humans migrated to North America in the first place. cite this source

2. Who were the first Americans?

It is believed that the first Americans might have been from Asia because it is believed that there may have once been a land bridge between Asia and Alaska before global warming were people once traveled across the land bridge into America.

1. Why did early humans migrate to North America?

The early humans that migrated to the Americas from Asia may have come here for many reasons, but I think they came here in search of food and shelter. This is because people like the Kennewick Man came here 9000 years ago and many of the bones they found from the Kennewick Man had shown signs of being broken or fractured and he even had a spear tip stuck in a bone. This means he went through many hard times, possibly conflict, and this might have been why these ancient peoples migrated to the Americas from Asia and Europe. ⁽https://app.discoveryeducation.com/learn/videos/070d4e9f-f945-4690-aa25-94edd7d840e2?hasLocalHost=false)  Also,

2. Who were the first Americans?

The first Americans were first thought to be the people who had migrated here from Europe and Asia, but recent studies and discoveries challenge this theory. The first Americans had actually arrived here far earlier than the peoples this migration on the land bridge and boats brought to the Americas. These people mainly lived in Central and South America, as well as in modern day Oregon. Archaeologist Tom Dillehay from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee discovered

1. Why did the early humans migrate to North America

The Americas were the last continent to be inhabited by early people. Archaeologists guess that people entered North America by crossing over the Bering Strait, which back then was a long  swath of land, about 15,000 years ago. http://www.livescience.com/7640-humans-migrate-americas.html

2. Who were the 1st Americans

They think that early native americans were the first americans to settle the earths ground. Which this was 12,000 years ago. They have found skulls that indicates that the skulls were native americans by the looks and the texture. They had slender looking faces and different cheek bones then us. says http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2003/09/0903_030903_bajaskull.html

1) Why did early humans migrate to North America?
The first Americans may have traveled to America for many reasons. They were hunters for a very long time. They followed the game. If they ran out of animals to eat they had to find some immediately. They may have not know that they were in America all they knew is this is where the food is. Many tribes had to hunt animals. Like deer, bear, fish, caribou, turkey, and other game. (the Native American Cultures worksheet)
2) Who were the first Americans?
Some people believe that the first people to come to the Americas were people from Asia. These people are believed to have come on small canoes or boats. Another theory is that they crossed over the land bridge from the ice age. This theory however, has recently been disproved by recent studies.

1. Why did early humans migrate  to North America?

Answer:
Nomads moved to North America because North America had more resources, food and hunting grounds. People also might have moved to North America because they were being chased for using hunting grounds that aren't there or a religion.

1. Why did early humans migrate to North America?

Early humans migrated to North America because of weather and for food. One of my reasons is weather. I put weather down is because on the website http://www.livescience.com/7640-humans-migrate-americas.html ,
it says that people most likely left was because of climate that made life to hard or impossible. The weather might have became to wet or to dry or the climate might have went hot to cold some days. This made people move because if it is impossible to do daily things to live, they wouldn't survive. The other reason was because of food. From the same article Live Science it says that because of weather (like i said) made food and crops to grow to survive so they had to go to North America for new food sources.
2. Who were the first Americans?

I believe that the first Americans were Native Americans because of the Kennewick Man and because the people they found when the Europeans arrived. My first reason is because of the Kennewick Man (the video we watched in class,) that was from a long time ago and archeologists found research saying that he was Native American. My second reason was because when Europeans arrived they saw Native Americans and American Indians that were living there before they came.

1. Why did the early humans migrate to North America?

The early humans migrated to North America in a quest to find food. The word Nomad would be defined as "a member of a community of people who live in different locations, moving from one place to another." (Wikipedia) When they crossed of to the americas there was a much greater supply of food for them to hunt for. That made it way easier for them.

2. Who were the first americans?

The first americans were from Southeast Asia. They took the land bridge that led here from Berigia. They were the first ones here because there was no one to start off with. Even though they were not technically native at the time, they established many native cultures.

1. Why did the early humans migrate to north America?

Early Americans migrated to North America from Asia to find new food sources and hunting grounds. The early Americans were nomads, they moved from place to place in search of food. As the nomads hunted animals, their population declined. This caused the nomads to travel to find other food sources. Traveling then lead them to the Americas. (McGraw Hill, 6)

2. Who were the first Americans?

The first Americans were people from Southeast Asia and  the southern Pacific area. In Brazil, a skeleton was found that is more than 11,000 years old and it does not match up with American Indians. It does match up with the Aborigines people of Australia. It is believed that the skeleton was part of the Paleoamericans and had come to the Americas by boat.

1. Why did early humans migrate to North America?

Early humans migrated to North America in search of new hunting grounds (food sources). Nomads are defined as people who move around in search of grounds for hunting. As the Nomads hunt in an area, animal populations decrease. They then migrate in search of a new area with more resources. This process continues as nomads hunt and run out of food. This process most likely led them to North America. (McGraw Hill, 6)

2. Who were the first Americans?

The First Americans were people from Southeast Asia and the Southern Pacific area. Evidence shows that a skeleton found in Brazil matches up with the Aborigines people in Australia (Southern Pacific area). Researchers believe that the skeleton was a part of a group of people called the Paleoamericans who were the first people who came to America, and they came by boat.

1. Why did early humans migrate to North America?
Answer:
Early humans migrated to America because of food. The people who migrated were called nomads and this group followed food. Since most people were living in Europe and Asia the food could have been decreasing. So, when the landbridge was created it was a perfect opportunity for more food.  Since only a group of twenty came at first it lead to lots of options for food.    (A History of Us, 14)

2. Who were the first Americans?
Answer:
The first Americans were the people who migrated from Asia.  They are the first because there were no one to begin with.  Those people might not have been native but they established many generations of native people.

1. Why did early humans migrate to North America?

The early Humans migrated for a couple reasons, one of those reasons was because of the food loss. The rising temperatures kill off lots of animals such as mastodons and mammoths. The early humans had no food and were forced to migrate over the land bridge to the americas for a new source of food such as corn and other crops similar to that. (Blue Book)
2. Who were the first Americans?
I think the first American people were of Asian heritage and were migrating because of the loss of food or the need of a new habitat ¨They may not have been the ancestors of today's Amerindians, but other people who came from Southeast Asia and the southern Pacific area.¨

1. Why did the early humans migrate to north america?
These people who have migrated from asia to america could have came for many reasons but one possible answer is that these people could have been moving for food because they ran out of food or they were just moving where the food was moving, these people are called Nomads. also another reason could have been because there could had been a lot of conflict as shown by the spear tip in a skeleton found in the america.

2. who where the first americans?
some say the first americans where the people who crossed over the land bridge that had been there during the ice age from north eastern asia to alaska. but resent studies have shown that the skulls from Baja California, which may date back only a few hundred years, have slender-looking faces that are different from the broad-cheeked craniums of modern Amerindians, the first americans where the descendants of the Mongoloid people.

Early humans migrated to North America to find more food. The people that did that are called nomads. nomads are people that move around in search of food and other resources . So when the land bridge opened up that gave the nomads a chance to move to a whole different place and many more kinds of food.http://www.history.com/news/new-study-refutes-theory-of-how-humans-populated-north-america

1. Why did early humans migrate to North America?

Early humans migrated for many reasons. The first reason is because of population. Scientists believe that there may have been an over population in tribes. The second reason is loss of food. Because they were not able to farm yet or make food they had go with the animals to get food and if they ran out of food in Asia they needed to find somewhere else to hunt. Those reasons are just a few of many reasons that early humans migrated. To find out more go to this website. http://www.livescience.com/7640-humans-migrate-americas.html

2. Who were the first Americans?

I believe that the first Americans were Native americans because of the following reasons. The first reason is that all the DNA that scientists have found traces back to Native American and American Indians. The second reason is those people are the only people found when Europeans came to america.

A1. The early humans migrated to America for a very specific reason. This reason is that they were nomadic hunters, and they needed to find more food. So, they traveled to America, trying to find more food sources. Another new, possible theory, is climate change, which would also control food. http://www.npr.org/2012/09/17/161278993/what-drove-early-man-across-globe-climate-change (NPR

Why did early humans migrate to North America?

The early humans might have migrated to North America because North America had more resources. These resources would include food like mammoths, mastodons, and herds of  bison. They also were farmers the crops they grew were  corn, potatoes,sweet potatoes, and squash. The early Americans also found out how to make popcorn and chocolate.
( Mcgraw hill 5,6,7)
(Joy Hakim 19-23)

Who were the first Americans?
I think that the first Americans were from Asian heritage. They migrated because they were running out of resources. These resources were food and they were also in search for a habitat. This is a very controversial topic and many people take different views.A good example would be that the Native Americans think that they were the first Americans when others would argue that the Kennewick man was the first american.
