Beschreibung

Bering Strait Crossings explores the fascinating story of how early humans migrated from Asia to North America via the Bering Land Bridge, or Beringia. Challenging simple narratives, the book highlights Beringia's complex environment, which influenced migration routes and the genetic makeup of early populations. It discusses how fluctuating sea levels, driven by glacial cycles during the Late Pleistocene epoch, shaped the land bridge's formation and disappearance, impacting human movement. The book uniquely integrates archaeological evidence, paleoenvironmental reconstructions, and genetic analysis to provide a holistic view.

 
The book examines archaeological sites in Asia and North America, revealing insights into early humans' material culture and survival strategies. Genetic analysis traces the lineage of Native American populations to their Asian origins, identifying genetic markers associated with different migration waves. Bering Strait Crossings progresses by establishing the geological context, examining archaeological evidence, analyzing genetic data, and reconstructing migration routes, culminating in an exploration of cultural adaptations across the Americas.

 
The book offers a fresh perspective by bridging archaeology, genetics, and earth sciences, appealing to scholars, students, and anyone interested in human origins and the peopling of the Americas.

William Cavendish

Tyrell and Julia booked to travel on the Titanic with their two sons to introduce them to their American grandfather, but the children were too ill to travel. Julia persisted in going without them. The fatal and tragic decision not only led to the unnecessary loss of her husband, it was to haunt her for the next fifty years. Why was she so determined to go? In a letter written to her sons, as her death approached, she claimed the purpose of the visit was 'to gain her wealthy father's support for his son-in-law's ambition to stand as a Member of Parliament.' Yet Tyrell had shown no enthusiasm for making the journey, as Julia had already made the trip alone, the previous year quite safely. From the Carpathia Julia cabled her father, Henry Siegel, to have clothes from his department stores ready for the Titanic's survivors. In 1992 and 2002 her son and grandson learnt from chance encounters with New Yorkers of Julia's father's shocking fall from grace, the grandfather who owned a famous department store with a 'soda fountain meeting place'. Now can be revealed the true reason for her mission.
