[edit]

How much of this article is prehistory, and how much is modern history or anthropology?

The first two paragraphs deal with migrations from 10,000 years ago, while the subsequent paragraphs talk about the culture, beliefs and lifestyle of the Alaskan peoples. Presumably the latter describes them in the last few centuries, and thus part of written history. If it is meant to describe the Alaskan cultures thousands of years ago, surely this is speculation, or some kind of archaeological evidence should be mentioned.

Either way, some cites would be good. Chris Thornett 16:40, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and similarly, what is the relevance of relatively modern photographs of relatively modern Alaskans? Maybe some maps of population movements, archaeological finds, etc, would help. Chris Thornett 16:43, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nonsense

[edit]

The migrations in Alaska did not occur between 60,000 and 50,000 years ago. When I try to view the source, Google lists it as a malicious site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.25.132.120 (talk) 03:44, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
