In what direction did the ancient people travel when they crossed the land bridge
scoray [572]
The ancient people were moving west.

The bridge that you are referring to was called the Bering land bridge which is now the Bering Strait. During the Ice age, though this area was covered in ice which made the sea levels drop and emerged the land bridge, the land bridge was covered with grasses and low shrubs which provided food for the mammoth, horses, caribou, and bison. It is believed that the ancient people followed these grazing animals from beringia (which is now SIberia)  and into America, they are believed to be the first inhabitants of America. Over time the weather got warmer and the glaciers started melting and the bridge started disappearing into what we now call the Bering strait this all happened about 11,600 years ago

To what does the term roaring 20s refer?
Leona [35]

The term "Roaring '20s" refers to the decade of the 1920s in the United States, which was a time of much economic growth, as well as much social and cultural change.

In the 1920s, cities grew rapidly and industry was growing immensely in the United States.  Jazz and other forms of entertainiment (like radio) were expanding and reaching new audiences.  Women were becoming more involved in public life.  The stock market was a place of much speculation and investment -- too much, as it turned out.  The stock market crashed in 1929.   America had thought it was in great times during the Roaring '20s.  But then everything came crashing down and minds and hearts were depressed, as the country entered into the next decade and an economic tragedy known as the Great Depression.
