A New Series during Autumn 2024
In the tradition of my mentor, Dr. Román Piña Chan, The Americas Revealed will be asking questions that cannot be answered by the current orthodoxy in anthropology texts. There is no doubt that the dominant indigenous DNA profile in the Americas is a mixture of four Siberian tribes, which geneticists call AmerIndian. However, very profound evidence suggests that AmerIndians were just part of the story in Eastern North America . . . from the Canadian Maritime Provinces and Great Lakes Basin to the southern tip of Florida.
For example, above you see a “Deptford Culture” mound and village in Robertstown, GA, about a mile north of Helen, which was unearthed by Dr. Robert Wauchope in 1939. It dates from around 1100 BC to 600 BC, but was preserved as a sacred shrine up to around 1700 AD. A few years ago, the city of Helen bulldozed it to make a parking lot for people riding inflatable rafts on the Chattahoochee River.
The same, combination burial & platform mound, houses and burial customs that you see above would have been seen in Ireland and southern Sweden at the same time. We ask . . .
Why would the same core words, petroglyphs, architecture, burial customs and artifacts be concurrently existing in what is now, Savannah, GA . . . the mountains and piedmont of the State of Georgia, Ireland, eastern Scotland and southern Sweden 3,000 years ago?
First though . . . here is your homework. This is an excellent new documentary by PBS, which explains what academicians currently believe is the story of all the Americas. Their generalization for all of North America is based on a complete lack of DNA test markers from the Southeastern United States, where most of the indigenous peoples lived.
The oldest DNA samples, so far, obtained in the Southeast are Proto-Sami, not AmerIndian. My family carries that same Proto-Sami as PART of their Native American heritage, but also lots of AmerIndian DNA from southern Mexico. The researchers are also carefully avoiding the questions that we will be asking.
The Americas Revealed 
I’m waiting . . . but just now, the sun is rising over the marsh, so I have to get moving. I’ll watch the documentary when I can, later.

OK, I’ve watched the documentary now. It was interesting. Like you, I wonder about migration from another direction, like from the Global South and up both coasts. I believe you have touched on this before. We don’t know that the “Ice Ages” covered the whole world at the same times, or in the same places. We have only small samples, in certain places. This documentary overlooked the vast internal river systems in North America, or South America, for that mattter.
I did learn a little about modern techniques of genetic sequencing. The “methods” of the scientific research were a little off-putting. I would not enjoy making a career of counting spores in ancient animal dung.
But it takes all kinds . . .

Katherine, I don’t have the patience either to scrape away ancient dirt with a tooth brush or mini-trowel.
