F_1_22 — Peopling of the Americas: Routes & Chronology

The peopling of the Americas — when, how, and by whom the Western Hemisphere was first colonized by modern humans — is one of the most actively debated questions in archaeology, genetics, and paleoanthropology, with the

The Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, ~26,500-19,000 BP) — when ice sheets covered ~32% of the global land surface and sea levels dropped ~120 meters below present — was not a period of human stagnation but of remarkable cultur

D_4_02 — Submerged Structures & Underwater Archaeology

Since the Last Glacial Maximum (~26,500–19,000 BP), global sea levels have risen approximately 120–130 meters, inundating an estimated 25 million km² of formerly habitable land — an area larger than North America. Any co
