that go back that far. Many scientists now believe that some of the First Peoples may have been here for much longer than that. For a long time, scientists believed that the ancestors of all North American First Nations people crossed over on foot to North America from Asia at the end of the last ice age, about 12,000 years ago. At that time Asia and North America were joined, and what is now the bottom of the Bering Sea between Russia and Alaska was dry land, (a "land bridge) because sea levels were much lower than they are now. The earliest man-made artifacts ­ tools or ornaments that archaeologists have found ­ date from that time. The theory is that nomadic hunting people followed the big animals (moose, deer, elk, buffalo) for food, and eventually moved south and spread out as the ice sheets melted back. Then they evolved different cultures to suit different environments.

The Western Plateau consists of tablelands and some mountains of denudation. Most of the rocks have turned into sand. There are big sand deserts on the Western Plateau; the Great Desert and the Victoria Desert. In central Australia there are lowlands, covered with sedimentary rocks (settekivimid). The Great Dividing Range runs along the Pacific coast. The mountains are old and worn down. The Australian Alps are the highest of them. The highest top of Australia is Mount Kosciusko (2,2 km above sea level). Australian rocks are rich in gold, polymetallic ores, iron ore, copper, uranium. Much coal is mined in the sedimentary rocks of south-east. The greatest attraction in the Northern Territory is Uluru. It is a huge monolith rock, 862 metres above the sea level, rising out of the desert. The local Aborigines regarded it as a sacred site. No one is sure when the first Aborigines moved into the
