What was once called the New World--now known as North and South America--was discovered thousands of years before Columbus decided he'd found it.
Although archaeologists differ on exact dates, most agree that from about 25,000 B.C. to about 9000 B.C., a land bridge connected the Asian and American continents. For thousands of years, intrepid travelers braved the severe northern climate to cross that land bridge from Asia to America.
