THE FIRST INHABITANTS
No one knows exactly how people came first to North America. However,
many scientists believe that America’s first settlers were hunters who came from
Siberia. These hunters followed big animals over a land bridge on to what is now
Alaska.
About two million years ago the weather in the northern half of the earth changed
greatly. The snow that fell did not melt in summer. Much of the land covered with
huge glaciers. This period of time is called the Ice Age because so much of the
North was covered with ice. Sea water froze, and the water level in sea dropped.
There is a narrow strait between the Berin and Chukchi Seas. During the Ice Age
this strait probably became very shallow. In some places it dried up completely and
formed a long bridge from Asia to North America.
The scietists think that the people of Asia found this land bridge between 15,000
and 40,000 years ago. Group after group moved across the bridge to the unexplored
continent of North America. They passed through the land which is now Alaska
and western Canada.
