A new study from researchers at ANU indicates the most likely route the first people took into Australia tens of thousands of years ago.

ANU PhD scholar Shimona Kealy said these people probably travelled through Indonesia’s northern islands, into New Guinea and then Australia, which were part of a single continent between 50,000 and 70,000 years ago, when sea levels were 25–50 metres below the current level.
