30,000-year Aboriginal story proven correct by science

Australia
And it’s another weird, possibly paranormal, story. As the saying goes, you wait a whole year for one and then two turn up at once.
An Aboriginal tale that states certain palm trees were brought to Australia by “gods from the north”, has been proven *correct* (I have to say that term loosely) because scientific evidence has shown the palm trees arrived some 30,000 years ago. Naturally the scientists are more pragmatic and suggest that humans brought them along, but who knows…
Decide for yourself.
Either way, that’s a 30,000-year oral tradition, which is astonishing.
It’s a beautiful thing when “mythological tales from primitive people” are proven correct by modern science. We should be less inclined to think of our ancestors as “stupid”, and even less inclined to believe ancient stories are just “myths”.
