Here's a concept I've never heard before.
Some say Japanese fishermen were the first inhabitants of the Americas as opposed to the previous idea that primitive man crossed the Bering Strait into Alaska.
This hypothesis has merit.
Over the years, theories have popped up that North America was discovered by ancient seafarers. Additionally, evidence emerged in the 90's of a group living on an island off the Chilean coast around 14,850 years ago. Aside from this finding, other studies have suggested the corridor that brought hunters into the New World was blocked by ice until some 13,000 years ago.

At any rate, you can read more about it here.
