Yes, Captain James Cook was aware that Indigenous Australians inhabited the land when he arrived in Australia in 1770. His journals indicate that he observed and noted the presence of Aboriginal peoples during his exploration. However, Cook's primary focus was on claiming the land for Britain, which disregarded the sovereignty and rights of the Indigenous populations.

Why did aboriginals come to Australia?
Many evolutionist believe that the Aborigines have been living in Australia for at least 40,000 years if not longer, and that they are the original Australians, not the white man. We know that to be true, just as we know the Native Americans were living on the North American continent before the white man. Like many peoples of the old world, overcrowding, disease, wars and other changes to where they originally lived may have been the reasons to move to a new land.

When did the aborigines come to Australia?
It isn't exactly known when they first migrated to Australia, but the general consensus is that the modern Aboriginals (Aboriginals as we know them today) migrated to Australia around (15,000 - 20,000) years ago. There is a LOT of evidence of a far older culture living in Australia for at least 60,000 years but dissapeared around the time the Aboriginals migrated here. The older culture was prominent in the north west of the country where paintings of the ancient "Wandjina" are the only remnants left of the first inhabitants.
