Quite an astonishing find in Khakassia, Siberia, has produced a 4,500-year-old grave of a ‘noble’ woman from the Okunev culture.
As the article states, these people were those most closely related to the Native American Indians who populated north America across Beringia. In other words, it was ascendants of the Okunev who were the first in the Americas. This statement, however, is nothing more than regurgitating the now ‘myth’ of the populating of the Americas. There was more than one group which set foot in the Americas and populated it – quite possibly hundreds of them all over the entire continent of north and south – so to suggest the Okunev were the relatives of the native Americans is bad science. Also the genetic markers are many thousands of years apart when it comes to relating those who supposedly first reached the Americas some 12,000 years earlier to the bronze age Okunev culture. It’s clear to me the Bering land bridge was an unlikely route taken by these people – It’s almost certain they came by boat.
That aside, the grave also contained the remains of a child, and it was full of rich goods. The Okunev are considered the most richly diverse and artistically advanced in the entire Siberian region for that time period, and no other culture comes close to them. They are known especially for their astonishing rock carvings. The woman’s grave has such stunning ornamental goods that nothing in the entire bronze age in Siberia has ever matched this find. Also, the graves found may indicate origins from modern-day Kazakhstan. It truly is a remarkable discovery.
