History of North America
The History of North America encompasses the past developments of people populating the continent of North America.
While it was commonly accepted that the continent first became inhabited by humans when individuals migrated across the Bering Sea 40,000 to 17,000 years ago,[1] more recent discoveries may have pushed those estimates back at least another 90,000 years.[2] People settled throughout the continent and, over time, developed into diverse communities, from the Inuit in the far north to the Mayans and Aztecs in the south.
These complex communities each developed their own unique cultures and ways of life.
