Are there megalithic monuments or any indication of ancient Indians in Canada?

Question

I read an article that claimed the idea the people moved accross the bearing straights from Canada was not plausible because there is not evidence of ancient indian settlements, monuments or even spear heads.

Answer 1

That doesn't sound like a very rational article.

Here is some info on Beringia. If you read enough, you'll understand why the settlements would not be there...

The only debate tends to be whether the FIRST were European or Asian, based on arrowheads....but even the people who think Europeans were first tend to still think Indigenous americans are asian (and the dna backs that up.)

Answer 2

I agree with the first answer. That is purely ridiculous. Have you seen the inuksuks that the inuit assemble? they can get to hundred feet or more. "No evidence" is ridiculous and false. And if one was to compare those peoples in mongolia and in northern canada? they have identical features! (not to sound mean). "no evidence" that is fallacious cr*p.

Answer 3

To sum it up, I agree with your previous answers. For thousands of years, the paleo-Indians and Inuit societies have existed there from the time they made the journey across the Beringa land bridge between two continents.  Most of the tribal societies did not leave behind any posessions or monoliths because they had very few to begin with, and their time was taken up by hunting, rather than creating art. However, the Inuit did and still do create art and artifacts in the form of Inuk shuks. These served as records of their journeys and encampments and a signal to other tribes that they had once been in that area.
