Recent findings at White Sands National Park, New Mexico, reveal that humans were present in North America around 21,500 years ago—right in the midst of the Last Glacial Maximum. Radiocarbon dating of seeds found within the footprint layers has pinpointed their age, pushing back the timeline of human migration into the Americas. These prints, likely left by children and teenagers, tell a remarkable story of survival at a time when mammoths and other ancient giants roamed the region. This discovery reshapes our understanding of early human life in this harsh and icy environment.
