Beringia (Journey to the East)

The Bering Isthmus, or Beringia, is a wide landmass connecting the continents of Asia and North America. Beringia is the only land border between the continents of Asia and North America. The Bering Strait is about 35-25 miles wide and spans 70 miles.

History
The Beringia landmass is estimated to have formed during the Ice Age at about 800,000-700,000 BCE. It is thought that contact between the North American and Pacific tectonic plates rose the elevation of the area slightly, causing the isthmus to never sink below the waves as the Ice Age glaciers melted and sea levels rose. Human migration continued until several hundred years after the Neolithic Revolution, when North American and Asian hunter-gatherer tribes began to transform into sedentary agricultural communities.
