Best Answer

From an Article by "Icabod" The first people into the Americas were nomadic hunters. They didn't plan to come here, they followed the migrations of the game. There was no point where somebody said "hey, welcome to the New World" Like most people, they were interested in getting enough to eat and leaving things a bit better for their children. We don't consider them "Native Americans" as they weren't born here and they predate the development of today's Native Americans(Indians). Rather we call them "PaleoIndians." However, some accounts consider the fact that these paleoamericans spread throughout the two continents and the various tribes that developed can be considered Native Americans, or Indians. The following is taken from http://en.wikipedia.org
