🌍📘 Indigenous Caribbean Origins and Their Ancient Asian Ancestry Indigenous Caribbean groups such as the Taíno and Caribs share ancestry with the first peoples who entered the Americas between 15,000 and 25,000 years ago by crossing the Bering land bridge from Asia. Genetic research shows that all Native American ancestries descend from ancient East Asian lineages with added contributions from Ancient North Eurasians. Studies of ancient Taíno DNA link their origins to northern South America wh

Recent genetic research supports what the Blackfoot Confederacy has preserved for generations through oral tradition: their ancestors belong to a distinct lineage that separated from other Indigenous peoples of the Americas roughly 18,000 years ago. The study indicates that present-day Blackfoot people descend from a previously unidentified ancient genetic lineage. This demonstrated genetic continuity between ancient remains and living Blackfoot communities strongly reinforces their enduring con
