Amerika kıtası'na ilk insan göçleri
Özet
In this thesis, the origins of the first human migrations to the Americas are emphasized by comparing the migration routes presented by the multi-regional evolution model and the theory of Out-of-Africa, that is, the single-centred evolution model. Archaic populations in the northern, central, and southern regions of the Americas are examined by defining descriptively the cultures of the first modern humans proven to have lived on the continent. Especially in the light of the development of technology, what is known about the origin of modern humans, the first human migrations to the Americas and the characteristics of the findings of the origins of the Agricultural Revolution in the Americas compared to other world populations are discussed. It has been underlined that the migration of modern humans to the Americas may have taken place in a much earlier period than the date of 11,500 BC, although there is still a need for a lot of scientific evidence.
