Certainly goes along with some of the DNA findings about markers on the Y chromosome.
The detective work seems to reveal the the origin of man is the Kalahari bushmen, the folks who talk with the clicks.
But the DNA markers that identified it show up next, in, of all places remains of ancient aboriginal folks IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA.
I don't care how old they are, if they are undocumented, send them back to where they came from!
Okay, now that THAT is disposed of, I am confused by the "previously inaccessable"; and, "until 1999 it was used as farming land"; and, "it has been 80 years since fire cleared the rocky landscape." That just sounds rather contradictory.
Also, if the fires just happened barely two weeks ago, what is the basis of the 30,000 year figure? It doesn't look like any excavation has been done yet, nor was any mentioned.
Interesting find. I have read that Australian Aborgines can have blonde hair. I would not be surprised if they came from Indonesia and are related to Ainus, Veddas, and Polynesians.
