* or maybe they just walked along the coast with reduced glacial sea 
levels. It's my understanding that the Haida have stories about both the 
post-Pleistocene rising sea level, and then of subsequently inventing 
boats. They wouldn't have needed to invent boats if they'd initially 
moved along the coast in boats.
