Austrailia and caucasions

[bigfoot3000]

Where there any white people at all in Australia before we in the uk or others came over there?

[sandyRoe]

The Dutch got there first.

[mollykins]

doubt it. The native people are dark skinned because the place is so hot, the only light skinned people would have been albios probably.

sandy, bf said ebfore we in the uk or others came over

[sandyRoe]

I never noticed the 'or others'. Sorry...

[bigfoot3000]

No problem sandy, Ok so did the first white settlers ever report any others there apart from the aborigines? So its a fact that there were no white people before the dutch?

[sandyRoe]

Apart from the aborigines the first Europeans to reach Australia were the Dutch. But it's probable that the first foreigners were actually Chinese.
Gavin Menzies, in his book, 1421 states that the wreck of a Chinese Junk was discovered in the sand near a northern beach.
