Map of Sunda and Sahul

Sunda or Sundaland was a prehistoric landmass that consisted of mainland and western Maritime Southeast Asia.[1] It was partially submerged starting around 18,000 years ago and continuing till about 5000 BC.[2][3]

Sahul and Sunda were points of early human migrations after leaving Africa.[4]
