I also saw recently a weird doublethink from people who want to "debunk" the idea of Injuns coming from Asia, but also don't want to admit that means that they'd had to have evolved from New World Monkeys directly, which would also mean that they're not the same species as Eurasiafrican humans ... but also don't want to be called "creationists" for defaulting to the religious nonsense of Injuns either popping up out of the ground, crawling out of caves, or being fished up by Raven.
It gets even worse. There's a lot of evidence, from similar art and tool design and DNA tests, that show that about 1/4 of the Native Americans are of European descent. And that these Europeans were in the Americas anywhere from 5,000 to 15,000 years before the Bering Strait migration from Asia.

i want to read this, got a link?
Sediments containing these artifacts are at least 50,000 years old, meaning that humans inhabited North American long before the last ice age.
The book puts forward a compelling case for people from northern Spain traveling to America by boat, following the edge of a sea ice shelf that connected Europe and America during the last Ice Age, 14,000 to 25,000 years ago.
In a study of exposed outcrops of Lake Otero in White Sands National Park in New Mexico, Bennett et al. reveal numerous human footprints dating to about 23,000 to 21,000 years ago.
And, if you like watching documentary series, Nova has an episode on the subject
