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 · Traces of a human presence in Beringia before 35 ka are limited and problematic, but given the evidence described above for occupation of the colder and drier parts of northern Eurasia 45–35 ka and the large mammal resources available on the exposed East Siberian Arctic Shelf during warm interstadials of this period, one or more episodes of ...
Feb 1, 2019 · These data indicate that humans occupied eastern Beringia at the same time they inhabited Siberia, and that they affected Arctic landscapes during the height of the last Ice Age. Our novel, multiproxy evidence demonstrates human presence in eastern Beringian by 32 cal ka BP, nearly contemporaneous with western Beringian populations.
