The Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and Papuan New Guinean peoples also known as First Nations people of ancient Sahul continent that both shared common ancestors from 45,000 years ago.
First Nations peoples have the longest lineages that been isolated within Sahul for that long period of time until the Holocene 8,000 years ago when Papuan people intermarried with Austronesian people, and adopted Lapita culture for example pottery. There are archaeological evidence that support Aboriginal people in Cape York adopted Lapita culture as well from 2,500 years ago. There are DNA evidence found from Lapita burial remains in Sulawesi dated 5,000 years old that shared common with the Sahulian descendants from 50,000 years ago.
