Sahul
Imagine a vast, ancient continent, hidden beneath the waves of time. This is Sahul, a land that once connected Australia, New Guinea, and Tasmania. Stretching back over 50,000 years, Sahul was home to the first human inhabitants of these regions, who braved treacherous ocean crossings to reach its shores. This lost world shaped the unique flora, fauna, and cultures we see today in Oceania. From giant marsupials to diverse Aboriginal societies, Sahul's legacy continues to fascinate scientists and historians alike. Join us as we unravel the mysteries of this sunken supercontinent and explore how its existence influenced the course of human history in the South Pacific.
