Genome Study Shows Early Asians Traveled Over 20,000 km to South America

From Ancient Origins

An international genomics study led by scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) at the Singapore Center for Environmental Life Sciences Engineering (SCELSE) and Asian School of the Environment (ASE) has shown that early Asians made humanity’s longest prehistoric migration.

These prehistoric humans, roaming Earth over a hundred thousand years ago, would have traversed more than 20,000 kilometers on foot from North Asia to the southernmost tip of South America.
