Question

anonymous · Answer

The Bering land bridge was a prehistoric land mass of frozen ice on the northern tip of the world. It was connected from the eastern tip of Asia to modern day Alaska and Canada.  This provided migration routes from Asia to North America. Scientists believe that that early humans eventually populated North America from following migrating herds from Asia to North America.
