The Windover community was not isolated.
It was embedded in the social fabric of Early Archaic North America, connected to other communities through the kinds of relationships that all small-scale societies maintain for social and biological health.
The Question Of Descendants
Who are the descendants of the people buried at Windover?
The question has been asked, and the honest answer is: we do not know with specificity.
The genetic evidence from the Windover population indicates that they carried mitochondrial haplogroups found in modern Native Americans — that they were part of the same broad ancestral lineage that populated the Americas from Beringia in the late Pleistocene and early Holocene.
