"Sometime before the end of the last Ice Age that covered most of North America with glaciers, there began a series of migrations out of Siberia that were to continue for thousands of years. Small bands of Stone Age hunters wandered across the land bridge which spanned the Bering Strait and moved from Asia into the Western Hemisphere without realizing they had "discovered" a new continent. These people were not all alike but differed in physical appearance, customs, and language. The trait they did share was an ability to adapt themselves to new environments." "The story of man in the Southwest begins about 25,000 years ago with the appearance of small bands of nomads who hunted with spears the mammoth, camel, bison, and ground sloth. Evidence of their passing is found only in the stone implements they made and left in their caves and campsites, often embedded in the skeletal remains of the animals they killed." And so began the history of Southwestern Indian Tribes.
