Before Present definition

Before Present means before 1950.
Before Present means before 1950 (Currie, 2004). Prehistoric human movement into what is now Milne Bay Province is thought to have followed a variable pattern with the primary distribution of people passing through and westwards along the Papuan Coast initially bypassing the islands of the Louisiade Archipelago (Irwin, 1991; McNiven et al., 2011). Based on linguistic evidence, Wurm et al. (1975) suggest that the Austronesian languages now spoken in the Louisiade Archipelago are part of a second migration wave that followed along the northern coast of mainland New Guinea, before extending to outer island areas.
