The first Australian residents lived in isolation
According to geneticists, the Australian and Melanesia indigenous peoples in Papua New Guinea may be descended from the same modern human branch from Africa some 50,000 years ago.

According to Dr. Toomas Kisivild and colleagues at Tartu University (Estonia) and Cambridge University (England), the first inhabitants of Sahu - a continent concentrating New Guinea, Australia and Tasmania in the same block - have I used to live very isolated.
Scientists studied the Y chromosome (parental transmission) and granular DNA (transmitted from the mother) of the Australian and Melanesia aborigines from DNA samples. The analysis revealed that these two peoples originated from the Homo Sapien group who had left Africa and traveled across Asia for about 2,000 generations before reaching Sahul.
According to Dr. Kisivild, the Australian and Papu peoples in island areas 8,000 years ago lived very isolated. The results confirm that they have almost no genetic mixing from 50,000 years ago.
Migration in Australia was isolated from the sea with the rest of the Asian continent that was the subject of much controversy. Fossils discovered on this continent confirm that many generations of people have settled in this place. The oldest fossil dated to 45,000 years old has a more modern resemblance to that of another fossil dating back 20,000 years.
According to Dr. Kisivild, these differences are due to the evolution of an isolated nation, not a mix with other peoples.
