Two Waves Overturn the Theory! The established theory of “The First Americans” is undergoing a major revision based on the latest research.
The traditional academic mainstream overly emphasized the later wave, focusing on the quantitative dominance of the inland hunter-gatherers (ANA-related B). As a result, the chronological precedence demonstrated by Population-Y in South America has been underestimated. The true understanding requires acknowledging the multi-wave arrival and dispersal via the coastal route. “Dual Definition of the First Americans.” 1. **Chronological Precursor: The Zero Wave (Ancestor-related A) **is a Circum-Pacific marine-adapted lineage linked to South American Population-Y. This Ancestor-related A is also suggested to have deep ties with the Aomori-Hokkaido Ancestor-related lineage (PAHK). 2. **Quantitative and Cultural Foundation: The Mainstream Wave (ANA-related B) **constitutes the widespread and major ancestry of Native Americans. They are a mixed group of North Eurasians who dispersed after a Standstill in Beringia. It is also pointed out that the dispersal timing of this Wave B is highly likely not to align with the 22,000 BP footprints found in New Mexico. -RSoJS #FirstAmericans#NewTheory
Dr. Scott, while your dental morphology analysis convincingly discredits the direct link between the Incipient Jomon population and the North American First Peoples, we propose the focus must now pivot southward. The key to understanding the deep origins of early American populations lies with the Indigenous peoples of South America, specifically the enigmatic ‘Population-Y,’ which in turn illuminates the more ancient lineage we term the ‘Hokkaido Sojin’ (Ancestor of Jomon people). This shift is crucial for correctly identifying the earliest Paleolithic dispersals into East Eurasia. ―RSoJS #祖人
