dna critical

• Construction crews discovered the ancient remains of an infant in 1968 in western Montana
• Similarities exist between the tools of the Clovis people and the tools used by members of the Solutrean culture
• DNA analysis of an ancient infant's remains has allowed scientists to link the Clovis culture to Native Americans
• Scientists studying the remains of an ancient infant worked closely with Native American tribes in Montana to ensure that the remains were treated appropriately
• According to their findings, published this week in the journal Nature, the Clovis people are direct ancestors of many Native Americans now living in North America, and can be linked to many native peoples in Central and South America as well
• The author means that many native peoples in Central and South America are related to the Clovis people
• The ancestors of today's Native Americans likely came from Asia
• The main idea of the text is DNA analysis of an ancient infant's remains has allowed scientists to link the Clovis culture to Native Americans
• Between 13,000 and 24,000 years ago


  The ancient people from Asia split into two lineages: one gave rise to Clovis and today's Native Americans of North America, and the other became the ancestors of Central and South American tribes
• Scientists discovered a link between the DNA of Anzick-1 and a Siberian youth
• Anzick-1 showed genetic similarities with Native Americans in North America and ties with indigenous peoples of Central and South America
• The Clovis people descended from humans who migrated to North America from Asia through Siberia around 15,000 years ago
• According to the findings published in the journal Nature, the Clovis people are direct ancestors of many Native Americans now living in North America, and can be linked to many native peoples in Central and South America as well
• Anzick-1 is the one-year-old boy whose remains were discovered in 1968 in western Montana and is the only human skeleton identified as one of the Clovis people
• The Clovis people can be linked to many native peoples in Central and South America
• Scientists studying the remains of an ancient infant has allowed scientists to link the Clovis culture to Native Americans
• It is highly likely that the ancestors of today's Native Americans came from Asia. The discovery of Anzick-1 in Montana provides evidence of this. Anzick-1 was a member of the Clovis people, and scientists found similarities between his DNA and that of a Siberian youth who lived 24,000 years ago. Scientists have genetically linked the Siberian youth with today's Native Americans, suggesting a migration from Asia to North America by a group of people who gave rise to the Clovis people, who in turn gave rise to Native Americans
• Scientists discovered a link between the DNA of Anzick-1 and the DNA of a Siberian youth, and today's Native Americans have also been genetically linked with the Siberian youth
