Language Study Lends Support to Native American 'Out-of-Beringia' Theory

*Wed, Mar 12, 2014*

New linguistic evolutionary analysis supports a relationship between Native
North American and Siberian languages.

Researchers who have conducted a new comparative phylogenetic study of the
Yeniseian language group of Siberia and the Na-Dene languages of North
America are shedding new light on our understanding of ancient migration
patterns of people between Asia and North America thousands of years ago,
suggesting that Native American origins may be somewhat more complex than a
one-time, direct eastward migration of people out of Asia into North
America via the Bering Land Bridge<http://www.cabrillo.edu/~crsmith/bering.html>
