yes

they r the true founders but after them is Leif Ericsson

even after him I think someone else came to America

Columbus was like the 3rd person

He was the only one to come back which is why he is “celebrated”

it's not just that

the scale is completely different

Columbus's discovery had 1000x more impact than Leif Ericsson's

yea duh.

like Is aid Leif erickson got attacked by native americans and never came back

so of course he didn’t get to settle

leif ericsson is a legend

well the Norse did settle in North America

he probably died

never returned

ye probably lol

The Yautja found the Americas

what’s funny is the colony Columbus is from stopped funding his voyage to America cus they thought it was a waste of time

Native Americans are unironically part European.

"Iz claim dis land for White bois"

no Native Americans aren't part European

there's shared genetics because Native Americans and Europeans have some common origin

unless you're talking about modern Native Americans who have European ancestry post-Columbus

~36,000 YBP: The ancestors of the ancient Beringians began to separate from East Asians, but gene flow between them continues until about 25,000 YBP
~25-20,000 YBP: This population experienced gene flow with the ancient North Eurasian population (to which the Mal’ta boy belonged)
~20,000 YBP: The ancestors of the Upward Sun River child diverged from the ancestors of other Native Americans.
~17,000-14,600 YBP: The two major clades (genetic groups) of Native Americans differentiate from one another.

yeah Ancient North Eurasians

I don't think the indo europeans were in ancient north eurasia at this time

could be wrong!

lol

PIE people (Yamnaya) had significant ANE ancestry because the two groups that merged to create them both had ANE ancestry

but they weren't pure ANE

@agag There's evidence of pre-Colombus European DNA fam.

please don't say Solutreans

Trump2020
