via ABC News, 15 February 2023: A radio story about the relatively fast migrations of humans through Sahul.
The ancient continent of Sahul was comprised of Australia and PNG, when sea levels were much lower.
It’s to this continent that the ancestors of Australian Aboriginal people came.
But new technology and modelling suggest it was not just a trickle of people that moved here over a long period of time.
It was an organised, mass migration – and it seems they fanned out across the continent relatively quickly.
