Hi, i just want to know in this thread that which ancestry do all native americans have? Are they all the siberian people. Some new searches say that they also have middle eastern and western european ancestry too. Anymore details about this topic?

There is ample academic documentation about this subject on the internet - indigenous Americans like anywhere else on the planet are not homogenous and carry a wide variety of genetic ancestry. There was not a distinct migration across Beringia at any specific point in time, but a continuous trickle over thousands of years of people of varied genetic background. People from southeast Asia migrated north into Siberia and so this tribes from the Caucasus and from there the followed game east towards central Asia and perhaps even Europe and of course west by way of Alaska into the Americas. They not only migrated overland, but also followed the coasts either by vessel or on foot and again over long spans of time. At the same time early Polynesian seafarers made it to the Pacific Coast of North, Central and South America leaving their genes behind, as well as some linguistic and cultural traits.
Look at the expressive art of the coastal tribes in the American Pacific Northwest that bear great resemblance to the art of the Ainu, an ancient seafaring population in northern Japan and beyond (Hokkaido Island, Northeast Honshu Island, Sakhalin Island, the Kuril Islands, the Kamchatka Peninsula and Khabarovsk Krai). On the other side of the American continent, the one facing Europe and Africa there would have been genetic exposure from the latter populations as well. Ancient humans were far more itinerant and widely dispersed than what we generally perceive.
