There is plentiful evidence that the first Native Americans (who migrated from both Siberia and what is now Norway, according to DNA evidence) had fully-developed belief systems based in Animism, which continue to develop through modern times.

The best answer we can offer is that the oldest belief systems in the world were Animist in nature, began in northern Africa and the Levantine area (east of the Mediterranean Sea) about 40,000 years ago, and continued to evolve and develop as people naturally migrated to North America over ice sheets and land bridges.

But for the record, it wasn't the Native American religion until they got to North America, some 25,000 years ago.
