Scientists believe that the first Americans, called the Paleo-Indians, came to the continent from Asia well over 10,000 years ago. At that time, North America and Asia were connected by a land bridge between what is now Alaska and Siberia. Scientists call the ancient land bridge that once existed Beringia.The first Paleo-Indians that crossed Beringia may have been following herds of animals.
