The oldest known footprints in North America were found recently in New Mexico, USA.

Is it ironic that the descendants of those people no longer have cultural sovereignty in the place the footprints were found unless they surrender first to a conqueror that arrived ~20,000 years later?

Or do barefeet people have fewer property rights?

Indigenous cultures in the United States have been largely wiped out. There are still many theme park tribes in the U.S., groups that speak English and have no power unless they adopt Western European culture, but they are rapidly surrendering / assimilating.

How many years do western European interests need to 'own' North America before they fully own it and don't have to worry about challenges to their supremacy?
