The First Americans - In Pursuit of Archaeology's Greatest Mystery by James Adovasio and Jake Page
Archaeologist J. M. Adovasio has spent the last thirty years at the center of one of our most fiery scientific debates: Who were the first humans in the Americas, and how and when did they get there? H. L. Mencken said that "for every complex problem, there is a solution that is simple, neat, and wrong." We all grew up thinking that the first Americans were a band of hunters who crossed the frozen Bering Strait during the Ice Age some twelve thousand years ago and whose descendants spread to the tip of South America in five hundred years. Now, in no small part because of J. M. Adovasio's work, our notions of who first peopled the Western Hemisphere, how they arrived, and how they lived have been forever changed.
