Abstract
Vagueness of earlier writings on eastward migrations to Australia-New Guinea during the 4th Glacial Age is clarified by collation of paleozoological and geological findings and opinions. Dry-shod and short channel crossings throughout were possible during the lowered sea level in Glacial times. A number of genetic types with wide range of characters found their way into Wallacea, and from there dispersed and further diversified.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
