I meant descendents rather than ancestors. Even I make a mistake once in awhile.

Bernie, here's some proof.
There's a new Chinese restaurant in Primo Tapia and the owner speaks Spanish. Looks Chinese though....Go figure.

Their food is pretty good, for Primo Tapia standars.

Hell, their food is pretty good for Rosarito standards and when you add in the price it's damn good.

I had the Shrimp-Seafood combo for 3 the other day for 18 bucks including tea.
And the little Chinese girl at the entrance is very friendly.

I suspect the earlier estimates for human occupation of the Americas are right, and probably too conservative....heck, a skull found in Laguna Beach
found by Howard Wilson in the 1930's was later radiocarbon dated at 17,000 years old.

Radiocarbon dating was found to be inaccurate in the 1980's because of irregular decay rate. It was correlated to the tree rings of Bristlecone Pines
and subsequently calibrated. So 1930's figures would have been inaccurate. And no, I don't know how much, nor which way.

How'd they determine that? Was there a bong impression found around the labrum?

First Americans
Archaeologists have also found evidence of early Americans on and off of the Islands in British Columbia.

Didn't any of you people go to school?
The first Americans landed at Plymouth Rock. I know this to be true because I have been there and have seen part of the rock.
Their boat was the Mayflower which wasn't a Chinese Junk.
If Americans were from China we would all have funny eyes and be good at math.
