Genetic surveys have identified at least three distinct "founder populations" or "waves of settlement", depending on the model, but have been unable to reliably date the arrival of these groups or definitively match them with related populations elsewhere in the world. Archæological evidence, primarily the carbon-dating of biotic material embedded in primitive stone tools, seems to point to an arrival date for the earliest pioneers between 40,000 and 50,000 years ago, though it remains unclear whether the makers of these tools were ''Homo sapiens'' or other hominids, and even less clear whether their genetic line continues in modern Aboriginals. | ||
Kiravian historians and anthropologists categorise the time between the immigration of the last Aboriginal "founder population" and the arrival of Arctic and Levantine peoples on Kiravian shores as the Isolation Period. The boundaries of this period are poorly defined, with the beginning date being purely theoretical and the end date rather vague due to lack of hard data. Nonetheless, the period of isolation has an upper bound of XXXX AD, as evidenced by findings of Celtic artifacts on the [[Mariava]] coast.** --> | Kiravian historians and anthropologists categorise the time between the immigration of the last Aboriginal "founder population" and the arrival of Arctic and Levantine peoples on Kiravian shores as the Isolation Period.

Today, all Aboriginal Kiravians are citizens of the Kiravian Federacy, with the four Draili tribes being the last to gain citizenship in 21126. Previously, the civil status of Aboriginals varied by the political favour in which their tribe was held, usually entailing lower grades of status such as metics, mere nationals, or [[subjects of the land]]. | Today, all Aboriginal Kiravians are citizens of the Kiravian Federacy, with the four Draili tribes being the last to gain citizenship in 21126.

<strike>The larger Treaty Tribes govern Tribal Authorities, defined by the Aboriginal Affairs Code as “domestic, dependent, but autocephalous subjects of federal law”.
