The black people of Asia, Pacific and Australia. Papuans are a dark skinned people found on the island of New Guinea, the world's second-largest island, with an area of 785,753 km2 (303,381 sq mi), which is located in Melanesia in the south-western Pacific Ocean. They number about 13 million.
When I observe a person from Papua New Guinea, I am struck by their physical resemblance to black Africans. The tightly curled hair, dark skin, and distinctive facial features all contribute to a visual impression of what we commonly associate with 'blackness.'
The origins of Papuans trace back to the first settlement of Australasia by a group known as "Australasians" or "Australo-Papuans" during the Initial Upper Paleolithic period. This group had a shared genetic makeup and culture linked to Ancient East Eurasians and shares ancestry with modern East Asians and other Asia-Pacific populations. Humans reached Sahul (the combined landmass of Australia and New Guinea) between 50,000 and 37,000 years ago. Around 10,000 years ago, rising sea levels separated New Guinea from Australia. Despite this, Aboriginal Australians and Papuans had already diverged genetically about 40,000 years ago. Papuans are more closely related to Melanesians than to Aboriginal Australians.
The ancestors of the Papuan New Guinean peoples scattered into highland and lowland areas, and evidently kept to themselves since then, going by genetic and linguistic evidence. And today, though possessing similar origins, Papuans are genetically highly different from each other, as reflected in their linguistic diversity. With approximately 850 domestic languages, which account for over 10 per cent of the world’s total, Papua New Guinea is the most linguistically diverse country in the world.

So how do their genetics look like? An average Papuan has DNA from number one, Ancient East Eurasians who migrated out of Africa around 60,000 to 70,000 years ago and reached the Sahul landmass (which included present-day Australia, New Guinea, and Tasmania) around 50,000 years ago, who are ancestors of South East Asians like Indians, Asia-Pacific groups and even the Andamanese , two ; Denisovans who'd been living in Asia for tens of thousands of years and in fact Papuans carry up to 5 % Denisovan DNA , the most Denisovan DNA of all groups , three, tiny Neanderthal DNA , and four ; an earlier extinct Out of Africa population group resulting in their drift away from other East-Eurasian and of course modern African populations. The fourth component is what makes them look like Africans and not typical Asian. Whereas contemporary Asian populations show signs of only one expansion of modern humans out of Africa, there may have in fact been two successful dispersals out of Africa, and that a “trace” of the earlier of these two expansion events has lingered in the genetics of modern Papuans. Therefore Papuans share for most part same evolutionary history as all other non-Africans, but research shows they may also contain some remnants of a chapter that is also yet to be described. Furthermore people on the island of New Guinea evolved independently from rest of the world for much of the last 50,000 years which further contributed to their distinctive look. As shown by the genetics, Papuans are not even close to modern Africans genetically by a large stretch. It is so shocking to me that white people are genetically closer to Black Africans than Papuans.
Do they claim blackness? The self-identification of Papuans, including whether they consider themselves "black," can be complex.
In interactions with outsiders and within broader geopolitical contexts, Papuans might sometimes be referred to as "black" due to their darker skin. Some will use this term to describe themselves especially in a convenient context. Some will argue they are black in terms of their skin color. Though not African, they are Melanesian. In fact the word Melanesia translates to “dark-skinned islanders.”
These shared struggles and resilience in the face of adversity resonate with the broader narrative of black history.
Some will totally reject the black label and argue that any phenotypical similarity is imaginary. That, Papuans, even if rather dark-skinned, tend not to be as dark as most black African peoples. That based on their observations, Papuans tend to have thinner lips, higher nose bridges, deeper set eyes, eyebrows that are nearer to the eyes, and their hair, even if kinky, has more variation in curliness depending on the person than with black Africans. That, some Papuans have naturally brown or blonde hair.
