Early human migration reached South America last. The most widely accepted theory was that human life originated in Africa and spread to the continents of Europe and Asia, as it was easy to access due to the continents being connected. During the Ice Ages, land bridges began to form which connected Asia to both North America and Australia. People then migrated to these continents because of land access. Since South America is farthest from any land bridge, it is most likely that South America was the last continent to be populated by humans that is currently populated by humans. In reality, Antarctica has yet to be populated by humans due to the extreme weather.

When people began exploring the earth's waters in ships, it was clear that polar waters were ultimately not navigable, given that errant icebergs could destroy a ship. This was too high a price to pay. Until ships' hulls were reinforced to withstand a collision with an iceberg, nothing was known about the area of the Southern Ocean. Since this is the location of Antarctica, it was the last continent to be discovered.
