America was first discovered by Stone Age hunters from Europe, according to new archaeological evidence.
Across six locations on the U.S. east coast, several dozen stone tools have been found.
After close analysis it was discovered that they were between 19,000 and 26,000 years old and were a European-style of tool.
The discovery suggests that the owners of the tools arrived 10,000 years before the ancestors of the American Indians set foot in the New World, reported The Independent.
Of course, like early days of all new discoveries and unorthodox theories, this is not yet incontrovertibly proven, but it is gaining traction, and changing the complexion (see what I did there?) of the debate.
See here - but use caution (and try not to catch anything)...it IS the Washington Post, after all...
