For over ten years now anthropology forums have been invaded by a wave of self-appointed anthropological experts who refer to Australoids as "archaic" or "archaic-looking" or "robust".
I have come here to enlighten them.
The English word archaic is ultimately derived from the Greek arkhē, meaning "beginning." In this vast planet's archaeological record, not one skull resembling an Australoid has been dug out of the ground and dated to older than 6,000 years before present time. Kow Swamp man is not an Australoid. Mungo man, a 60,000 year old skeleton from Australia, is not an Australoid and has been genetically proven to be entirely unrelated to living people.
Homo erectus looks nothing like an Australoid. Rhodesiensis looks nothing like an Australoid. The Neanderthals are as far removed from an Australoid as you can possibly get, and the Skhul and Qafzeh hominids of Mt. Carmel, too, have nothing to do with them as demonstrated by Keith and McGowan, and RS Corruncini.
The Australoids are not archaic, because there simply are no fossil skulls in the archaeological record that resemble them.
So who (or what) are the Australoids? The best explanation is that they are a modern population that has had the misfortune of developing a widespread chromosomal disease that has given them their unusual features which, not coincidentally, resemble Hurler syndrome.
