Answer: Option E
<u>Explanation:</u>
Although the first settlers of the Americas were considered to be Clovis people recent researches direct that several colonists who arrived at different times probably via different roots with variations in their physical and genetic characteristics have initiated the settlement of Americas.
The 1950's hypothesis referred from the “Clovis first theory” which explains the earliest existence of humans in the Americas from Clovis culture. Paleolithic hunter-gatherers escaped from the North Asian region and entered North America; nearly 10,000 years ago the people of the Americas were named Paleo-Indians.
