Question

Why does Antarctica not have an indigenous human population ?

Answer 1

because it is the coldest continent

Answer 2

Antarctica is land covered by ice surrounded by water. For an imagined early polar people to thrive in Antarctica they would first have to cross the Southern Ocean. No mean feat. There is a Maori legend from the seventh century of a navigator named Ui Te Rangiroa who sailed so far south that he encountered icebergs in a frozen sea. That's as close as we get to recorded human presence in Antarctica until about a thousand years later.
