The first humans in North America may or may not have been “white,” but this is not the definitive evidence for it, nor is rjjrdq the source anyone should be using to get their archaeological information.

Here’s a little survey I did on different schools of thought about the earliest humans in North America:

- 13,500 years ago across the Bering Strait; long-held belief among archaeologists before the following discoveries:
- 14,300 years ago (Jenkins, 2008, oldest radio carbon dated human remains – coprolite found in Oregon cave) http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26819601/
- 19,000 years ago from France / Spain area (Stanford, presented in 2006, based on design of spear tips) http://www.livescience.com/history/060219_first_americans.html
- 50,000 (Goodyear, presented in 2004, radio carbon dating of plant remains at a dig in South Carolina) http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2004/11/041118104010.htm

So depending on which scientist you believe, the earliest humans in North America may have been Asian, European, or maybe even African. But 13,000 years is certainly not the oldest evidence.
