How long have people lived in Australia?
Humans started to stay in Australia approximately 48,000 years ago. They had been hunter-gatherers. Their descendants are Aborigines and Torres Straight Islanders. There have been approximately 350,000 Aborigines whilst the Europeans first landed in 1606. Today, maximum Aborigines stay in the desert-like important a part of Australia referred to as the ‘outback’, having been driven out of the extra fertile regions through the European settlers.
