1. How do beliefs about the origins of Native Americans differ between Native Americans and anthropologists? Anthropologists believe Native Americans migrated across a land bridge, but Native Americans believe they were here from the beginning of time. Native Americans believe that they migrated from Asia much earlier than archaeologists believe. Natives Americans believe that they originated from a woman married to a star, but archaeologists believe the woman was married to a coyote. Anthropologists believe native people migrated to America in small boats, but Native Americans believe they migrated here with the help of killer whales.​

Answer:

Native Americans go by their religion and beliefs while Archaeologists and Anthropologists try to be least biased as possible and go by the facts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Native Americans believed inanimate objects could have human abilities and believed they could talk to animals and understand them. A coyote is more believable to bare children with a woman than a star is because a star is an inanimate object and therefore cannot possibly have offspring with a living person.
