What's the surprise? Late migration from Siberia? It's not that surprising at all if you're familiar with the territory. The arctic peoples of North America are fairly recent immigrants, between six and none thousand years ago. Even after the initial migration, there was some bit of trade around the arctic circle - copper and iron implements have been found in North American archaeological sites, for instance.

Another interesting factor is arctic whale hunting. it seems that around three thousand years ago, some group in what is today Western Canada got it in their heads, "Screw it, we're eating a whale" and they did. They devised systems and tools and tactics for taking down whales and preparing htem. it seems that they were the first people to do so, at least on any sort of regular scale. Their skills them traveled west to Alaska, and East to the rest of Canada... And then in sites in Siberia after this apparent development, we start finding carved whalebone and large harpoon points.

Even today, the circumpolar peoples of all three continents - Europe, Asia, and North America - recognize their closeness to one another and are working to strengthen ties.

Greenland not always a frozen desolate place.

What if this guy travelled by boat or his people fled to Siberie , as Greenland froze.

Lost civilisations are being told of being flooded.
What if... Ice is still water and evidence is found of animals freezing to death with warm temperate climate plants it had consumed not even were digested yet.
