There were 12 tribes in the bible and I am pretty sure Native Americans were one of them. The Apocrypha talks about how some of the tribes dispersed and even went into a land never before inhabited by man.
2 Esdras 13:40"Those are the ten tribes, which were carried away prisoners out of their own land in the time of Osea the king, whom Salmanasar the king of Assyria led away captive, and he carried them over the waters, and so came they into another land."
41"But they took this counsel among themselves, that they would leave the multitude of the heathen, and go forth into a further country, WHERE MANKIND NEVER DWELT,"
42" That they might there keep their statutes(they did not), which they never kept in their own land."
45"For through that country there was a great way to go, namely, of a year and a half: and the same region is called Arsareth(America).
Even in this picture you can see Israelites with bow and arrows, and the bible mentions that some of the tribes are skilled with the arrow in the bible. All the people in the picture are Israelites except the two Egyptians to the top right.
If you read the whole chapter God talks about the restoration of Israel. WOE unto that nation of people that brought harm to his people, people cease to realize how much of a serious offense this was. People even lie to this day and say God totally did away with his people, do not believe such lies. The world shall see the 12 tribes in all their glory when God returns.
