One of the world's oldest rainforests has been returned to the Australian Aboriginal people who have lived there for millenniums

More than 395,000 acres from four of Australia's national parks was returned to the Aboriginal Eastern Kuku Yalanji people in a "historic" agreement, officials announced Wednesday. 

Among the land is tourist hotspot Daintree National Park, a roughly 2.2-million-acre rainforest that's part of Australia's Wet Tropics, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The rainforest, which lies on Queensland's northeast coast bordering the Coral Sea, is believed to be one of the oldest rainforests in the world, and the original home of the Kuku Yalanji.

The agreement also includes the Ngalba-bulal, Kalkajak and Hope Islands National Parks, and will create a new nature refuge.
