Let's start with the opinion of many people about who the Aborigines are. The best description of who they are, comes from A.P. Elkin. The subdivisions are mostly mixed among one another. The second main group is the Mongoloid, which is characterized by yellowish skin, black hair, absence of hair on their body, and high cheek bones. Examples of Mongoloids include the Chinese, Japanese, and Siamese.
Negroids are the third main division.
Characteristics of this group include, brown to black skin, woolly or coarse hair, protruding lips, and a bulging forehead. Examples are the people of Africa, and Zulu. The Aborigines are neither European, Mongoloid, or Negroid, and do not fit into any of the divisions. With these features, the Aborigine differs from us, and the rest of the three main groups. Instead of calling them Aborigines, books often refer to the Aborigines as the Australoids.
