The
first people into the Americas were nomadic hunters. They didn't
plan to come here, they followed the migrations of the game. Like
most people, they were interested in getting enough to eat and
leaving things a bit better for their children. We don't consider
them "Native Americans" as they weren't born here and they predate
the development of today's Native Americans(Indians). Rather we
call them "PaleoIndians."
They walked across dry land from Asia. The great ice age lowered
the water of the Bering strait and created a new land, Beringia.
Beringia is generally thought to have been a flat plain, dry and
dusty. It did support plant and animal life.
