"Go look up Australian aborigines in your spare time. Preferably before you post again."
Been there, done that. Maybe you should review a bit. Paleoanthrolologists identified the LM3 remains, revoveed at the dried Lake Mungo site as the oldest human fossil in Australia. They were tested and dated by the luminescence method (notroiously inaccurate) to be about 60,000 years old. That age, considering the inaccuracy of the method should be considered a very high estimate. Subsequent redating of the same remains using the same method resulted in a date of 30 to 40,000 years old. When they were finally tested using radio carbon dating, they yielded a date between 17 and 26,000 years ago.
The second oldest human fossils in Australia from the Kow Swamp date to about 12,000 years ago using the radio carbon method.
Genetic studies from 12,000 indigenous individuals shows conclusively that indegenous Australian people (as well as aisan and oceanic groups) share a genetic connectionwith African populations. Molecular clock analysis suggests they diverged about 35,000 years ago.
