Now to shut up all, it is evident, that the first Planters of _America_ were not _Europeans_ from the dissimilitude of the People, both in their Complexions, Language and Persons; nor _Africans_, because that in all the far-spreading Countrey of _America_, not one _Negro_ is to be found, except a few near the River _Martha_, in the little Territory _Quarequa_, which must by Storm be drove thither from the _Guinny_ Coast: So that _Asia_, the Mother of all People, onely remains to be Implanter of our _America_, whose Western Coast, opposite to _Asia_, is more inhabited than to the East, where it respects _Europe_. [Sidenote: _Tartary_ is not parted from _America_ by the _Straights_ of _Anian_.] Moreover, _Armenia_, out of which, by _Noah_’s Progeny, the whole Earth was re-peopled, borders on _Scythia_, now call’d _Tartary_, and _Tartary_ faces _America_, separated onely by the _Straights_ of _Anian_; though some are of opinion, that out of the South into the Frozen Sea, there is no passage thorow these _Straights_, else (as we have already prov’d the contrary) how came all those Voracious and Poysonous Beasts into _America_, if it be clearly separated from _Asia_ by Sea? It deserves here to be related, what happen’d to _Henry Cornelison Schaep_, and _William Byleveld_, Sailing from _Batavia_ to discover the _Tartarick_ River _Polysange_, but were taken and carry’d Prisoners to the _Japan_ Court at _Jedo_; being Commanded there by Order of the Councel to give an account of a _Japan_ Map or Card, which was laid before them, and contain’d the Provinces of _Japan_, _Amboina_, the _Molucca_ Islands, _Manilha_, the _South-Sea_, _Borneo_, _Celebes_, _Malacca_, _Tartary_, _Formosa_, _Corea_, and the vast and Mountainous Countrey or Desart of _Jesso_, separated from _Japan_ by the _Straights_ of _Sungar_; though toward the North, it joyns to _Japan_ in the Province of _Ochio_; and beginning in forty seven degrees, run North-East towards _America_, but they could not possible find the _Straights_ of _Anian_; but on the contrary, the Promontory of _Tartary_, _viz._ the Province _Kataya_ or _Katui_ lay in the same parallel with the Northern _America_.
