I think the ones who "discovered" it came across the Bering Strait land bridge between what is now Russia and Alaska. That was more than 4,000 years ago - more like 15,000 years ago. They were the same race that would become the Mongols, from Mongolia obviously, which is now part of China, so same difference.

Inuits and Native Americans (north to south) have characteristics and DNA closely matching tribes from Asia. I mean, get a load of this map:
