Mongolian Discovery of America Studied A search for the remains of the earliest human beings in North America, believed to be Mongoloid ancestors of the American Indian, will be conducted in Alaska this summer by a joint expedition of the National Geographic Society and Smithsonian Institution. Village sites of prehistoric Eskimos who are thought to have come to North America from Asia will be excavated. These buried villages and refuse heaps left by ancient peoples have been preserved for centuries in perpetually frozen soil and are widespread in northern Alaska. The expedition hopes to clear up once and for all the mystery of how North and South America were populated. Most natural scientists believe the Indians to be of Asiatic descent. The original migrants crossed Bering Strait to Alaska and then moved southward, according to this view. The leader of the expedition will be Henry B. Collins Jr., of Smithsonian, who has already spent four seasons doing archaeological work in this region. Recently he was awarded the gold medal and a prize of 1000 kroner by the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters for his studies on the origin of the Eskimo. His expedition left Washington yesterday and will reach Alaska in June. Text Bering Strait eskimo* Alaska Washington State University: WSU Libraries Digital Collections Bering Strait Indian Pacific |
