Mungo Man

Lake Mungo is a dry lake in south-western New South Wales, Australia. Many important archaeological findings have been made at the lake, most significantly the discovery of the remains of Mungo Man, the oldest human remains found in Australia, and Mungo Lady, the oldest human remains in the world to be ritually cremated.

Painting of life at Lake Mungo by Giovanni Caselli. Note the fish traps, the wide variety of food hunted and collected, and the gunyahs or dwellings.

I’m sorry, but this is like wow kinda resarch. I never thought growing up that we would ever know the origins of man, where we came from, so this is amazing.

What did I miss? A year or two ago there was this loud voice saying Neanderthals didn’t breed with humans. Now they’re finding Neanderthal DNA in humans?

Aboriginal Australians were the first to separate from other modern humans, around 70,000 years ago.

Sometimes it doesn't pay to be an early adopter.

I’m assuming the Maori are part of that group, as well? I guess they just continued the journey on over to what is now New Zealand.
