Beringia is a land of great beauty, with the highest mountains in north america overlooking broad plateaus and meandering rivers.It is a wild and ecologically healthy landscape unlike any other.
About 15,000 years ago the bering strait (the body of water currently between asia and alaska) was dry land, allowing.The temperatures range from some of the coldest on the earth in winter to uncomfortably warm in summer.Joined alaska and eastern siberia.
The land bridge between eastern asia and north america.It is a vital landscape for indigenous communities who depend on the land just as their ancestors did for many generations.
Up to 328' (100 m) or more.Here is the evidence for three theories explaining how the first humans arrived in america:During the ice age the sea level fell by several hundred feet, making the strait into a land bridge between asia and north america, over which a considerable migration of plants and animals, as well as humans (about 20,000 to 35,000 years ago), occurred.
However, by the early 1800s, scientists and theorists began discussing the possibility of a land bridge that had spanned between asia and north america thousands of years ago.Recent archaeological studies in eastern beringia, as well as detailed mapping of the route of the ice free corridor, have led researchers to recognize that a passable opening between the ice sheets did exist beginning circa 14,000 cal bp (ca.

Abhishek Strikes 46-ball Ton As India Give Zimbabwe A Thrashing
Gloucestershire 196 for 5 (Hammond 42, Gregory 3-34) beat Somerset 194 for 6 (Banton 77*, Green 47) by five wickets
Ben Charlesworth hit the penultimate ball of the match for six to give Gloucestershire a thrilling five-wicket Vitality Blast South Group victory over arch-rivals Somerset at Taunton.
The visitors chased down a target of 195, including 13 off the final over bowled by Ben Green, Charlesworth hitting an unbeaten 24 off 13 balls at the death. Miles Hammond contributed 42 and Beau Webster 39.
The home side had posted 194 for six, 32 of them coming off a last over that saw Josh Shaw removed from the attack for two full-toss no-balls above waist height. Tom Banton hit six fours and four sixes in his 77 and shared a sixth-wicket stand of 88 in 6.4 overs with Green, who blasted 47 off just 25 deliveries.
Somerset reached 58 for two in the six-over powerplay after losing the toss, seeing Will Smeed depart to a catch at cover off David Payne and Tom Kohler-Cadmore caught at mid-off for 22 in the fifth over, bowled by Shaw.
Banton was dropped on 11, 12 and 20, Gloucestershire skipper Jack Taylor twice spilling chances at mid-off and Ollie Price failing to hold onto an opportunity at fine-leg.
Even so, the visitors continued to take wickets, Marchant de Lange producing three sharp overs. Boundaries dried up, and at 148 for 5 at the end of the 18th over, with Tom Abell, Sean Dickson, and Lewis Gregory dismissed cheaply, Somerset looked short of a competitive total.
That changed when Payne went for 14 off the 19th and more so when Green smacked 6,4,4,2 off the first four balls of the final over, sent down by Shaw. Two of the deliveries were above waist high on the full and resulted in no-balls, as well as the umpires ordering the seamer out of the attack.
Off-spinner Price was asked to bowl the last four deliveries of the innings and Green collected another four and a six before holing out to wide long-on. Banton had played a key role and Somerset ended their innings with momentum.
Cameron Bancroft fell for a five-ball duck at the start of Gloucestershire's reply, caught at mid-off off Gregory. But by the end of the powerplay, the visitors had raced to 55 for one, James Bracey having hit Riley Meredith for three successive fours and Hammond looking in fine touch.
The pair had added 66 in 5.2 overs when Hammond skyed a catch to long-on off Roelof van der Merwe, having hit the previous delivery for six. Bracey, on 31, followed in the next over, miscuing a catch to point to give Gregory a second wicket.
Taylor and Webster then kept Gloucestershire on course for victory with sensible cricket before taking 20 off the 15th over, bowled by Jake Ball. Their stand of 65 in 6.1 overs ended when Taylor skyed a catch off Josh Davey with 44 needed from 27 balls.
Webster fell to brilliant catch by wicketkeeper Banton off Gregory at the start of the 18th over, the Somerset skipper becoming their leading all-time wicket-taker in T20 cricket, before back-to-back boundaries from Price left Gloucestershire needing 21 off two overs.
With Meredith off the field due to a back spasm and unable to send down his last two overs, it fell to Green to bowl at the death and both Price and Charlesworth smashed sixes to seal a remarkable victory.
