New World's
Population Expansion
Began In 1500
Washington—About 1500 B. C.,
a great expansion of population
started in the New World and con
tinued up to the arrival of the
white men. This is one of "the cu-
.jrious implications .of the dating of
archaelogical material by the new
radioactive carbon technique. It is
reported to the American Geophy
sical Union by Dr. Frank H. H.
Roberts, Jr., of the Smithsonian
Institution. '
“Some of the Old World remains
show more antiquity than anything
thus far found on this side of the
water. Whether it is pure coinci
dence, the result of the choice of
samples selected for testing, or a
matter of some significance re
mains to be seen, but it is worthy
of note that the remains of the so-
called Paleo-Indian in the New
World tend to fall into certain
date patterns. The oldest is approx-
| imately 10,000 years old. Then
! there is a group between 8,000 and
: 8,500 years old. Others center
around* 7,000 years old, while the
! largest number occur in the 4,000
to 5,000-year category,
i “The intervals of several hun-
i dred years in some cases may mean
that we are merely have not found
i the sites that belong there. On the
other hand, they may indicate a
break in occupation with recurring
waves of migration. It is certain
that beginning about 1500 B. C.
there was a marked increase in the
population of North America and
that it continued to expand until
the arrival of white man.”
