That all depends on how you define "all along". We ain't talking about dozens of years,we are talking about centuries in some cases.
@sneakypete I am well aware of the timeline. Throughout all of history, the men of the north have always been big and white, with red or blonde hair and blue or green eyes... As far back as you care to go... Not according to what science defines... Go look at actual testimony from authors talking about em.
No,they don't. While it is true that the native tribes in the east sometimes mixed/mated with the pale faces,NONE of the native tribes were Caucasians.
I didn't say they were caucasian. I said they come from caucasian stock... Again, as far back as you would like to go, there are historical records of people writing about the Iroquois nation and the Cherokee nation speaking of red and blonde hair being present (present, not predominant), as well as green and blue eyes. Read the early French explorers and the history around Hudson's bay. That's white genes, right there.
Erickson was not the first white guy on American shores. Not by a long shot.
Shoot, there's SUMERIAN bowls and statues down in central America - And that's as far back as history goes.
I happen to be 1/4 Tuscarora Indian,which is an offshoot of the Mohawk tribe
I know.
Mostly. There were a few that landed on the shores of North and South America after getting caught in big storms. They stayed because they really didn't have any way of going back to Europe,and the natives for the most part were friendlier to them than most of the people where they came from. Various Indian tribes look at taking in strangers and letting them marry into their tribes as a way of keeping the blood fresh.
Nah. There was active trade across the North... The same way Erickson and the Vikings got here, but long, long before. Northmen were following the seals exactly the same way it happened on the west coast with the Asians. Shoot, the entire bronze age happened with copper from the Great Lakes. Go look where the copper was... And the tin... And do the math.
BTW,when you speak of the "Asians coming here",they weren't Asians until they got to Asia. Some came south and mixed in with the various indigenous peoples already here,but most kept moving until they got to what we now call Asia. Don't ask me why because I don't have a clue,but that IS what happened,for whatever reason.
Most of the Asians come out of China and points south
