Reduced sea levels, caused by water evaporating from the oceans and being locked up on the continents in the form of ice. Many areas of previously shallow seas were now dry land.
Early humans were able to travel from one continent to another by using land bridges that connected continents during periods of lower sea levels, such as the Bering Land Bridge that allowed migration from Asia to North America. They may have also used primitive watercraft to cross short stretches of water.
Antarctica is considered the last continent to be discovered by humans. The first confirmed sighting of the continent occurred in 1820.
Humans do not inhabit the continent of Antarctica permanently, but there are settlements there where teams of scientists study aspects of the great frozen continent.
The Bering Strait which is between Asia and North America
The last continent that humans reached was Antarctica. It was not discovered until the early 19th century, although there is evidence suggesting that some ancient civilizations may have visited the continent thousands of years ago.
To go from one continent to another, humans had to travel by foot or by horse. Unless, of course, there was water in between. The invention of ships made it possible to go between continents.

Feet and/or boats. Land bridges created by lowered sea levels during the last period of glaciation also helped mobility between continents.
During the Ice Age, lower sea levels created land bridges between continents, like the Bering Land Bridge between Asia and North America. This allowed early humans to migrate to new continents in search of food and resources.
During the ice ages, lower sea levels exposed land bridges that connected continents, making it easier for early humans to migrate. These migrations played a crucial role in the peopling of many regions around the world.
Lower sea levels during the ice ages created land bridges that connected continents, allowing early humans to migrate between them. The dropping sea levels also led to the formation of ice sheets, which lowered global temperatures and made these new land bridges more accessible to early humans.
Humans travel to and from the Antarctic continent when it is accessible either by ship or by airplane. During the winter season -- when the sun isn't shining, the continent is not accessible.
No. Humans have never lived in Antarctica; it's too cold.
