The contact with the Old World civilizations could have occurred both across the Atlantic and across the Pacific very early. If the earliest pottery is in the Amazon, theoreticians wishing to evoke transoceanic contacts can always theorize that the early contacts were with Africa, instead of with Asia. So let's hope the facts will emerge soon behind all this smoke. Best regards, Yuri. Of course I will be very greatful if any errors or inaccuracies in my two posts are found and pointed out to me.
Any new information is certainly welcome too.
