If you travel the world you see majority of the places indigenous population look like us lol. Philippines, Australia, etc. I don’t think it’s a reach to say it probably was some that looked like us in the America’s as well? I know my ancestors are from West Africa but I don’t think that’s the same for everyone though lol.
