Aponian lineage

The Aponian lineage refers to a hypothetical ancestral line that includes various populations in northeastern Asia and parts of the Americas. It is often discussed in the context of human evolution and migration, particularly regarding how ancient peoples spread across land bridges, like Beringia, connecting Asia and North America. Researchers look at genetic, archaeological, and linguistic evidence to understand these connections, which help trace the movement and development of cultures over thousands of years. The study of Aponian lineage contributes to our knowledge of human history and the peopling of the Americas.
