Just watched a great NOVA episode on human migration to the Americas.

Someone found the skeleton of a 13,000 year old female underwater in a Guatemalan cave along with other period animals that fell in.

They went through the genetics that has resolved the open questions of human settlement. All known cultures in the past are related.

I watched something similar on netflix the other evening that mentioned the anzick child and clovis burial site. It turns out that south and central america is more closely related to clovis than north america. And I believe the age of the clovis burial site in Montana was 13000 years.
