Best Answer

Australian Aborigines are Australoid. While they may resemble Africans in their skin colour, they are actually VERY different from them, perhaps even more so than Caucasians are. The DNA of Australian Aborigines is closest to that of many of the people of the Indian sub-continent.

Mostly nonnative Caucasian Austrailians. The oldest inhabitants are called aborigines by everyone except aborigines. They identify themselves by group names that reflect language, ancestry and/or home territory. There are dozens of names.

No one actually knows what race aboriginal Australians are but most people think that they are white. Others think they look a tiny bit hispanic but most aboriginals that still live today look a bit tanned and some of them are black. It's a coincident.
