Who are the native people of Australia?

Tom, To simplify what I believe you're trying to say. The name "aboriginal" can be applied to anyone or any group, who were the first to occupy their homeland.

I've not been to Australia

MyQuiz, this is very wrong. "ab" means "from", "abnormal" is an unusual word meaning "(different) from the normal", late ML. "aboriginal" means "from the origin", or the original people. Close to "ab initio" "from the beginning".

there was the pigmey tribes before aboriginal Australians that were wiped from existence by the aborigines therefore they are not the rightful owners of the land

just commenting to complete the "challenging"
