Answer:
An aboriginal skeleton that was discovered in 2012 on the banks of Darling river in Tootale National Park is known as Toorale Man. The skeleton's facial bones were damaged and had deep and fatal wounds. The wound stretched from the forehead to the mouth.
Initially, it was believed that the wound was caused by metal blades and the man died in the violence between the aboriginals and European settlers. But the radiocarbon dating revealed that the man died much earlier, almost 700 years ago. It raised several questions about the use of metal by aboriginals because metal arrived in Australia with Macassan Fisherman in the north and then with the European settlement.
His skull was lying on a washed pile of sand and was arranged in a fetal position and his skull was sticking out.
