BUT, who are what are the Native Americans? Many, many groups came into NAmerica LONG before Columbus and De Soto. Even as far back as Ice Age. Now proven. These many people's mixed with whomever was here. Phonesians, Minoians, Solutreans even. Some say Egyptians too. They came for copper and gold and you are right, the Mayans came up and got clay from Georgia to make special blue glaze/ Mayan Blue. An essential part was Clay from Georgia. In Cherokee, they teach the public that the Mayans were here and brought corn to the Cherokee 1100 years ago. Yes, Vikings too. Welch before that. Welch Druids too came in Viking Long boats escaping Christian persecution.
