Where did the Chinook people come from?
Siberia - Also known as the Bering Strait Theory, the Land Bridge theory has been widely accepted since the 1930s. This model of migration into the New World proposes that people migrated from Siberia into Alaska, tracking big game animal herds. They were able to cross between the two continents by a land bridge called the Bering Land Bridge, which spanned what is now the Bering Strait, during the Wisconsin glaciation, the last major stage of the Pleistocene beginning 50,000 years ago and ending some 10,000 years ago, when ocean levels were 60 metres (200 ft) lower than today.
What created the bering strait between the Asian and north American continents?
The Bering Strait was formed by plate tectonics, specifically the movement of the Earth's crust along the boundary between the North American Plate and the Pacific Plate. This movement continues to shape the region today, influencing both the geography and climate of the area.
HoW many people crossed the Bering straight?
Some people say that twelve people crossed the Bering Straight, but I think way more crossed it like maybe three hundred or more. If twelve how can we have more than three million today. Four hundred years later.
What the first American from Asia walked across?
During the last Ice Age the ocean level dropped so much that a corridor of dry land emerged between Siberia and Alaska,where the Bering Strait is today. this allowed people from Asia to walk across.
What piece of land connected Asia and northamerica?
The piece of land that connected Asia and North America is often referred to as Beringia. This land bridge emerged during the last Ice Age when sea levels were lower, allowing humans and animals to migrate between the two continents. Today, the Bering Strait is all that remains as the connection between Asia and North America.
What is the Bering Strait?
The Bering Strait is a sea strait between Cape Dezhnev, Russia, the easternmost point of the Asian continent and Cape Prince of Wales, Alaska, the westernmost point of the North American continent. The Bering Strait is the broad channel of ocean (about 53 miles) between Russia and Alaska. More specifically, it lies between Cape Dezhnev, which is the easternmost point (169°43' W) of continental Asia, and Cape Prince of Wales, Alaska, the most western point (168°05' W) of North America. Use the link below to see a satellite photo, maps and other information in this approximately 85 kilometer wide stretch of water that lies just below the Arctic circle. The Bering Strait links the Arctic Ocean to the Bering Sea, separating the continents of Asia and North America at their closest point. 20,000 years ago during the ice age, ice formed a bridge between North America and Asia here. Today, it consists of 47 miles of some of the harshest ocean and arctic conditions.

Who reached first in California?
The west coast of North America likely saw the first sustained arrival of people to the continent. Although there are other theories, most scientists believe that the first significant groups of people came from Asia, through today's Bering Strait area, then through modern Alaska, and from there spread throughout North America and to South America.
