- Our analyses corroborate that humans were present in Beringia during the Last Glacial and that they likely promoted fire activity. Our data also suggest that humans coexisted with Ice Age megafauna for millennia prior to their eventual extinction at the end of the Last Glacial.

Oct 9, 2023 · Beringia surfaced once waters in the North Pacific dropped roughly 164 feet (50 meters) below today's levels; it was passable by foot between 30,000 and 12,000 years ago, Meltzer and Eske...
Jan 11, 2023 · There is evidence for people in eastern Beringia in the form of biomarker data (faecal sterol molecular markers) from two lakes in arctic Alaska. Sediment cores from Burial Lake and Lake E-5 in the Brooks Range yield recurring peaks of a high coprostanol : stigmastanol ratio (greater than 0.18) in the 34.5–31.5-ka time range and later ...
Feb 1, 2019 · Our data shed new light on the pathway and timing of human migration to the Americas and demonstrate the possibility of the sustainable coexistence of humans and the Ice Age megafauna in Beringia prior to their extinction.

May 20, 2020 · Genetic research has recently led to the ‘Beringian standstill hypothesis’ (BSH), which suggests an isolated group of humans lived somewhere in Beringia for millennia during the Last Glacial, before a subgroup migrated southward into the American continents about 14 ka.

Jan 13, 2024 · Evidence of human occupation of eastern Beringia during and before the LGM recently has been put forth, including modified bone at Bluefish Caves and sterols in lake cores in northern Alaska, respectively.
Apr 8, 2016 · It is supported by evidence of comparatively mild climates and rich biota in south-central Beringia at this time (30,000-15,000 years ago). These and other developments suggest that the settlement of the Americas may be integrated with the global dispersal of modern humans.
