Hey @agmoore,
There is one theory that the migration to Alaska and the Aleutians was by sea, coming from the West. This theory is not much in favor. Then recent discoveries in South America throw established dates and theories into doubt.
And then there's Thor Heyerdahl, who sought to prove the earliest Americans sailed from Mesopotamia.
The questions continue....
I also heard about things like this. In combination with aspects, we already discussed these theories could be proven.
Most of the Aleutians are part of the Alaskan Wildlife Preserve. So I don't think large scale settlement would be possible, even if people were inclined. Today, only the indigenous people are allowed to slaughter seals, because the animals are protected.
Yeah, that's good. Not only for the seals ;-)
It seems every time a question is answered another tantalizing one arises.
That's the curse of a good article. The better you attract peoples attention and understanding, the more comments and further thoughts a being added.
If I had a private jet (😅) I would visit that part of the world. The trip would be impossible for me now...I would never survive 😁
Try one of the big A380 planes! They are really comfortable!
A perfect remaining weekend also to you
Cheers

A 380 ! Why didn't I think of that! Tasmania, here I come!
(That's your personal GIF 😄)
Thank you for your kind words--it makes a difference. Don't work too hard this week :)
Warm regards,

So far it's ok!
Thanks
