What is the southeastern part of Maine called?
Are you referring to the part of Maine that sticks out further to the east than the rest of the State? I wouldn't call it "Southeast", as it's WAY further North than a good part of the state. If you're referring to the part of Maine that is about due east of Bangor (you'll need to look at a map to be sure of this), we in Maine call that "Downeast". If you're referring to the furthest south area of Maine, us Mainers just refer to that as "York County" (that is it's actual name).

How did the Proto-Algic people from Siberia live in Maine?
"Proto-Algic," people -based on my observations of their culture, physiology, and languages...as far as I can tell seem to be very likely an amalgation of two primary groups of unrelated peoples -who converged somewhere in North America- and which two unrelated groups of peoples also happen to comprise the overwhelming majority of nearly all other Amerindian peoples.
1. A group of Austronesian-speaking peoples migrating across the Pacific.
2. A group of at least several very different ethnicities who 'creolized' with each other in Western Eurasia and Central Asia. The PRIMARY language transmitted by THESE peoples across Asia...and then finally across the Bering Strait...is Sino-Caucasian.
Na-Dene languages (Navajo/Apache, etc.) have LONG SINCE been hypothesized to be related to Sino-Caucasian languages. Na-Dene has recently been proven to be related to ONE branch of Sino-Caucasian: Yeniseian. It has YET, however, to be proven to be related to the remaining branches of Sino-Caucasian: which are Basque, Northern Caucasian, Sino-Tibetan (including Chinese), and Burushaski.
Hence, in my analyses these two convergences of unrelated peoples and languages (Austronesian from across the Pacific; and Sino-Caucasian speaking peoples from across the Bering Strait) comprise the overwhelming majority of nearly all Amerindian culture, languages and physiology.
The Sino-Caucasian speaking ensemble which has its origins in Eurasia (Caucasus Mountains), is a super-creolized ethinicity comprised of at least several very diverse ethnicities: primarily Turkic, Mongol, and Tungusic...with very large amounts of Tibetan and Chinese, Indo-European, and Semitic as well. Much or most of this creolization took place, in my opinion, very soon after the Tower of Babel when many different ethnicities still lived in close proximity to each other -before dispersal into all directions. Much more admixture may have taken place -en route to the Bering Strait across all of Asia and southern Siberia.
Proto-Algic speakers, hence, to reiterate are an almagation of one ensemble (comprised of various very different ethnicities -speaking primarily a Sino-Caucasian language) crossing over the Bering Strait...and an Austronesian offshoot in the Americas having migrated northward after landing in either South America or Meso-America.
The convergence of these two ensembles must have ocurred very very early in prehistory. Perhaps the convergence occurred where Proto-Algic peoples are said to have their roots: In the great lakes regions.
I currently have 'deciphered' most of the Americas -physiologically, culturally, and genetically...and I currently have the 'greatest understanding' of Native American prehistory of perhaps, any person who has ever lived...
