Why was some archaeological research into prehistoric America controversial?

By referring to prehistoric America I presume that you mean all the countries that make up North America. For the record, the entire continent of North America makes up America and that everyone living in North America is an American. There has been some recent and controversial evidence as to who may have been the first people in North America. North American Indians like to claim that they were the first nations in North America and they are forever trying to use this to their maximum advantage. Should it be proven that they were not the first then the proverbial carpet would be pulled out from under their feet. North American Indians strongly oppose any research or evidence that may prove them as having not been here first. For a start, the validity of their treaties could then be questioned and there could likely to be many other consequences.
