This dog-shaped jar was found at a site of the Colima indians...

 ...and this one in the Shandong province in China (ca. 3000 BC).

I think, there is enough evidence, that there was interaction between the old cultures. Some of the similarities, I presented, may be far-fetched, but that should keep nobody from opening their mind to new ideas.

I have one thing left, that keeps scientists busy: Easter Island. Most scientists are totally convinced, it was initially populated from the East, by Polynesians. Thor Heyerdahl showed, that it could be reached from Peru (which is in fact the nearest shore), but that was and still is disputed. We might never find out, who erected those mysterious giants with their red hats,
