    Default Should Dravidians and Australian aborigines classified as black, and are they related to eachother?

    Well for sure if I was to compare who look like them the most than Australian aborigines look Black. The same I would compare Caucasian with Ainu/Jomon. As for Dravidians, I still think they have their own look or I still think they look closer to North Indians.

    Their face are different to African Blacks and Ethiopians. Australian Aborines and Dravidians have neither the genetics and skulls that matches African people, their physical features are a environmental adaption. Anyway should they be considered Black?











    Tamil Indians, their the only group who I would never classify as Black even though their closer to this veddoid Australoid. It's their hair, facial hair, nose shape, bone structure that is similar to Caucasian. Another group said they are related with Australian aborigines but I don't see it at all.

    Australian Aborigines originally came from India but that was thousands of years ago. The Australian Aborigine has been isolated and has deviated from the Indian population. The have an origin but are not that similar today.

    I don't know if they are related, but I don't consider Tamils black...nor white. They are Indian, eat very hot food and are very popular in the IT department.

    I agree with you to some extent..

    All Caucasoids like European, MENA, most-of-south-Asians were all derived from same group near Caucasus mountain or somewhere near that place

    It doesn't make sense if we go back too far (after all, all humans were originated from same place)

    We should talk about current population genes alone => INdians and Australoids got nothing in common.
    If you claim those two got something in common then you also should acknowledge Africans and Whites got something common

    Black is already used to describe Aboriginals in Australia; its a social construct not based in science but informed by that nations context

    If they are one distinct race? No they aren't obviously that is so.

    So basically you'd be classified as Aborigine if you went to Australia, no wonder you defended cannibalism before.
