An international genomics study led by scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) at the Singapore Center for Environmental Life Sciences Engineering (SCELSE) and Asian School of the Environment (ASE) has shown that early Asians made humanity's longest prehistoric migration. These prehistoric humans, roaming Earth over a hundred thousand years ago, would have traversed more than 20,000 kilometers on foot from North Asia to the southernmost tip of South America. This journey would have taken multiple generations of humans, taking thousands of years. In the past, land masses were also different, with ice bridging certain portions that made the route possible.
