This section needs many more citations. Also, the most popular model at this point is that only one wave of migration occurred into Australia, even though there are some problems with it.^[1] The claim of multiple migrations, first, needs to be cited, and second, needs to be presented alongside the other models rather than posed as the only model.

42,000 Years ago is plausible, not 50,000 or 60,000.

The remains found at lake Mungo does coincides with the rapid Extinction rate of Australian megafauna at around this time of 42,000 years ago and points to must likely a hunting to extinction like with the mammoth in north Asia and North America.
