Watch from 30:00-end in First Peoples: Americas (PBS, 2015), then answer the following questions:
1. Does the film conclude that there were more likely two waves of migration from Asia to the Americas, or just one? What evidence do they use to support this hypothesis?
2. After watching this film, what do you think about the “lumper vs splitter” debate that we talked about in class (Week 12 slides)?
3. Who was Kennewick Man/The Ancient One, and what happened in the legal case surrounding his bones? What elements of the case do you think were handled well, and what elements do you think could have been handled better?
