Several ice ages have come and gone in 100,000 years, many "land bridges" for access. And we're to believe modern humans only came to the Americas 12,500 years ago. Poppycock I say.

They came from Africa and went across the globe through Asia. The Americas were the last continent they came to.

Not sure why that seems hard to believe.

I think he is arguing with the timeframe

Not sure why it’s hard for you to believe for that any crossing of the land bridge only happened 12,500 years ago. It’s undisputed that large game animals were here and crossed a land bridge well before that. And paleontologists will tell you that hunter gathers follow animals because it is their food source., to say nothing of the other hard scientific evidence we have.

Also they didn’t only get to he Americas via land bridge. Boat arrivals are entirely plausible if not probable. Think about it. How could people make it from Russia/Asia to Australia via boats but not also to the Americas? Either they came on purpose or possible storms pushed them. And Native South Americans and Native Australians share the same strains of DNA after all.
