A Montana Man Has The Oldest DNA Native To America, And It Changes What We Know About Our Ancestors

Native American man's DNA traced back 17000 years
Darrell “Dusty” Crawford, whose Native American Blackfoot name is Lone Bull, looks over his results with fascination. He’s taken a DNA test with an outfit called Cellular Research Institute (CRI) and learned a lot about his heritage. What he doesn’t know yet, though, is that the conclusions will also have implications for all Native Americans.

If humans have been on this earth around 300, 000ish years then I think it is foolish to think we didn't try to explore all of Earth before modern historical context

My uncle, by marriage, was from Oklahoma. He always claimed he was part Native American but didn't know which tribe. He and his daughter took DNA tests several years ago and found they had small amounts Polynesian DNA.

Interesting point about the two infants DNA being linked to the Montana man. Why do scientists keep coming to the conclusion that the people crossing the “land bridge” were only going in one direction? i.e., from Siberia to the American continents? Couldn’t they have also been traveling in the opposite direction too? Just a thought.

Wow…that gave me goosebumps. Native American connected to Polynesian. “Ina- the first women”… “ina” in my language means mother…I’m Filipino.

I was with public health service for a number of years working in the American southwest, primarily with Navajo, and natives of Pueblo-an descent. The Navajo are Athabascan in origin and have linguistic ties to tribes living on the west coast of Canada. They are known to also be a somewhat of late comers to the New World probably just before the land bridge flooded at the beginning of this interglacial. The Zuni and Hopi have very different creation stories. What is most odd about? These stories is that there is a repeated theme of water and rafting/sailing. This idea pervaded their ancestors, the Anasazi so much so that they actually built symbolic rafts into the pillars that supported the great Kiva’s. This is particularly striking. When you consider where they have lived for over 1000 years in the southwest, you couldn’t find enough water to put a raft on to save your life.

This robotic voice really takes away from the topic.

[Bessie-ndfk]

why is the fact ignored that these people were astounding seamen.

[jonimartin]

There is also a genetic link between the Appaloosa horses and horses on the plains in Uzbekistan

[paulofearghail]

Thank you for pointing out the difference between an ice age and a glacial maximum, as well as making it clear that we are in an ice age even now. Too many people don't understand this, and explanations as clear as this one are very helpful.

[AndThereYouGo]

My question is not did Natives come across into the US. DNA says that. My question did humans ARISE in the US & go OUT & then BACK IN?

[parkerw.]

I’m just pointing out a small in accuracy that I see they say that the traced back 17, 000 years which was 55 generations that means each of his ancestors was 300 years old when they gave birth. 17, 000 years would be roughly 1000 generations if they had babies at 17 years of age. I don’t care if they were 14 having babies it still is a lot more generations.

I wonder why nobody is talking about Aleutian islands hopping. Back in the day when the sea levels were much lower probably it was almost a continuous land mass stretching from Alaska all the way to Kamchatka. It was a much easier and warmer route and a much more rich hunting and fishing ground. They could have just gone south by boat along the Cascadian coast

[LadyMaven]

Um, I think you mean "Blackfoot." That's the English name for the tribe, not "Blackfeet, " even in the plural. Example; "The Blackfoot crossed the river."

There's many groups in South America with Polynesian ancestry. There's also groups with genetic links to an even earlier group from Australasia, that have a shared heritage with various groups in Melanesia, Australia, and South East Asia. We know the Polynesians sailed to South America, though we don't know how the older group got there (probably the same way). The Americas have seen multiple waves of migration, both from the north and the south. I wouldn't be completely surprised if some came from the east as well.

There are plenty of stories in Native American traditions of there being other, distinctly different groups there in the past, that they often came into conflict with, who were not Native American (as we use the term today) and who are now extinct. There are stories of groups of short, stocky, and aggressive people in remote parts of Canada who sound like Neanderthals, and giants in the west who could've been Denisovans. There have been plenty of opportunities in the past for migrations over land bridges to occur, before modern humans were able to do it. Perhaps there were older hominid species in North America, in small numbers, before the modern humans arrived.

I would love to meet this man and have a dna test done to see what my history is. I'm full blooded Blackfoot from Lethbridge, Alberta. My grandmother is from Montana. Her name was Grace Bullchild. Thank you, Grace Newell (Grace North Paigan)

[dianacroy]

Only God knows. We are all his creation.

[miray]

I was very surprised to have small part of Native American dna ( i came from USSR in 1980s) Some of my roots from Central Russia and people there have even more % of DNA matching Native American. Also cultures of some native people in Siberia who follows shamanism, believes, dna etc,

[randysanchez]

Very interesting.

I wonder where he got his DNA tested for further conclusion?
I’d like to see how far they can go back for my lineage.

For Haplogroups, I have QM-3 from my dad and A2 from my mom, which both migrational mapping came from Beringia.

For admixture, I have Mexican, Spanish, Tarahumara, Couhitec from my mom’s side.
I also have Spanish, Mexican, Jicarilla, and Pueblo from my dad’s side.

The man in the thumbnail is Jicarilla Apache chief James Garfield Velarde, who my family think my dad heavily resembles.

[rdmineer]

Have never been convinced that ALL Native Americans came from Asia. Considering human history elsewhere, that is too simple a view. I've met many Native Americans, and not just those in North America. Most Mexicans, for example, carry native DNA. More than 60 separate native genomes have been identified in Mexico alone, for the application of modern pharmaceuticals. What benefits one can seriously harm another simply because of their DNA. There are more, some still pure, throughout South America.

Just look at the performance of a sibirian "Shaman" and then to the same in a performance of a north american "Medicine Man"... the differece is nearly only the LANGUAGE they use in their songs.
And when I visited a powwow many years back and saw a famous singer from the Lakota Sioux he just looked like a twin to another famous singer from Oahu Hawaii... of course there where several ways to reach northern America!!! Our stone age ancestors where very skilled and not as primitive as we are told!😊❤
