"Aboriginal Australians descend from the first human explorers," explains lead author and University of Copenhagen professor Eske Willerslev in a news release. "While the ancestors of Europeans and Asians were sitting somewhere in Africa or the Middle East, yet to explore their world further, the ancestors of Aboriginal Australians spread rapidly ... traversing unknown territory in Asia and finally crossing the sea into Australia."
"Race" is really a very amorphous term. By bone structure, the Aborigine seems Caucasian yet come from a time after Caucasians-Mongoloids split off from sub-saharan africans but before the Cs and Ms split off themselves.
Like I said, that was when I was 40 years younger. DNA wasn’t much of a thing back then so physiology was about all there was to go on.
