Transcript
How did people get around the world from where the ark landed in the Middle East? Well, the flood was followed by the dispersion at Babel. God confused the peoples’ language, spreading out over the earth. This got people moving.
And the flood was also followed by the ice age. This dramatically lowered ocean levels, exposing land bridges, including a bridge between Russia and Alaska. This allowed people to walk to the Americas. And land bridges and island-hopping allowed people to get to Australia. Other groups took boats to explore the new world.
Starting with the history in God’s Word, we can explain human migration.
