Exactly! As you can see in the below picture, e.g., Siberia and Alaska were fused together

Recently historians seem to move away from the theory that the first humans came in America through Beringia in favour of the idea that they came from Oceania, on boats. But that still means their first settlements or remains are likely underwater, because sea lever was lower everywhere..

you're right! I never explored myself the oceanic theory (like, extensive reading and such, not me going on a canoe lol), so I totally forgot about it!

I mean for one thing cruelty of the highest degree to the natives he encountered.

But I recently found out that dumbass brought corn to the old world without explaining the nixtmalization process which lead to the spread of pellagra throughout the world. 

I know of Atrocoties of Europeans as a whole when settling. Dont know much about Columbus treatment to the Natives specifically. What did he do?

 

I didnt know the 2nd part. But that one we can chalck off to ignorance. How mamy times do scientists of today and developers even now accidentally create something terrible with meds that turn out to kill u long term or environmental destruction of some innitiative that was meant to help
