At the time for Oligocene-Miocene boundary -LRB- 23.8 mya -RRB- , the Tethys Seaway , a deep through between the Arabian and Iranian Plates , isolated Africa from Eurasia ; an isolation that lasted until the gradual closure of the Tethys at the end of MN 3 -LRB- 19-18 mya -RRB- , and America was connected to Asia by the Beringian landbridge ..
