Best Answer

Yes. Native Americans are thought to have crossed from Beringia, a land bridge between Russia and North America thousands of years ago, traveling south, following the migration of Animals and spreading all the way down to South America. The Native Americans are thought to have crossed this bridge during the Ice Age while water levels were low due to the water being frozen. It is thought that the land bridge was flooded by water after the Ice Age ended.

European settlers have no recorded presence in the Americas until the 1st Millennium, AD.
