The Timeline of the history of Europeans in America deals with the modern cultural development of the United States, Canada, Brazil and Argentina through Europeans.

Pre-History (40,000 - 7,000 BC)

History: Writing, Agriculture and the Aryan invasions (7,000 - 2,500 BC)

  • 7,000: Nordic type mummy found inside a grotto called the spirit cave, Nevada, USA.
  • 7,000: Nordic type mummy found in the columbia river near Kennewick, Nevada, USA.

History: Greece, Rome, Celts and the Phoenicians (2500 BC - 400 AD)

  • 2000 BC: Stone remains of a ceremonial site at North Salem, New Hampshire are remarkably similar to prehistoric European constructions. Recent research suggests North Salem includes an astronomical calender. Advocates of the theory that North Salem was built by American Indians have been unable to explain the rarity of Northern Indian tribes building with stone.
  • 400 BC - 200 AD: Roman presence on the Canary Islands; the islands could have been used as a jumping spot into the new world.
  • Some south and north American newsreports have told stories about Roman coins that where found in archeological digs.
  • Carthage's Lost Warriors: New documentary suggests Carthaginians and Celts reached South America before Columbus. [1]

Viking invasions and the Crusades (ca 400 - 1492)

  • 500 - 800: A Celtic monastic order called the Culdee could have reached North America when they tried to flee from the invading Norsemen. Medieval texts record a monk named Brendan making a voyage from what is now known as Ireland to an Island far to the West, this Island was later known as "St Brendans Isle". Tim Severn in 1976/1977 journeyed to Newfoundland in a small boat constructed as boats were probably made in Early Celtic Medieval times.
  • 1000: Vikings reach Vinland (America).

Spain and Portugal (after 1492)
