  3. The History of North America encompasses the past developments of people populating the continent of North America. While it was commonly accepted that the continent first became inhabited by humans when individuals migrated across the Bering Sea 40,000 to 17,000 years ago, [ 1 ] more recent discoveries may have pushed those estimates back at least another 90,000 years.
