There is some evidence that the original Americans were Caucasians similar to the Ainu people of Japan. Ironic that Whites were here first, were invaded by the Mongoloids and totally annihilated, then the Whites re-invaded, took back what was originally theirs, and nearly destroyed the first group of invaders. The "Indians" are fighting tooth-and-nail to keep this suppressed. Google Kennewick Man.
I’m not too anxious to accept the find as a proof for an across the board statement. Somewhere along the line in my reading, archeologists have recently used DNA in order to theorize that the Europeans had established a relationship between themselves and our native Americans hundreds if not thousands of years prior to the vikings. If such a thing did occur, then I can imagine that the relationships that were formed went beyond that of the occasional hand shake. Just as there are presently DNA links which tie in the possibility of a Native American woman going to Iceland nearly a millennia past, I can imagine the same happening here which link the European with the Native American. The whole affair is interesting though and might make for a bit more research on my part.
There is also some evidence that the early people in both North America and South America may have had different skin colors and characteristics. Some of the old pictures seem to show an advanced (for that time) civilization, and the dark-skinned people were the masters, and the white-skinned people were the slaves. I will look for that picture and post it if I can find it again, because it is pretty interesting, and came from a drawing from sometimes in the 1600’s. If there were actually very dark-skinned people here hundreds of years ago, then some of the people who think they are African-American might have more of a Native American ancestry instead of African ancestry. Virginia actually listed Indians as being Negro in the early 1900’s, which kind of fits in with the idea of an earlier native race living here, as well as the white-skinned ones that @Ken Anderson wrote about.
