Taxacom: origin of Amerindians

[John Grehan]

The possibilities are endless I guess. Maybe this group settled and lost
its seafaring heritage, and then reinvented. My main point is that an
offshore or trans-open water arrival is not precluded by current evidence.
Maybe the necessary 'proof' one way or the other will never be found. I
can't even prove that I dug the vege garden yesterday :)

Cheers, John
