IOW, you're talking for years about something you don't know anything
about?? Remarkable.

In short, AAT is the theory that the Plio-Pleistocene diaspora of genus Homo
went along the coasts http://www.onelist.com/community/AAT . Simple, no?

(And if for some reason you happen to think that our ancestors did never
live along coasts, I'd like to see your arguments. :-))

> PS And while you're at it.....What *really* is the Savannah Theory?

It's no theory, but a bunch of just-so ideas (originally based on a
geological misinterpretation of Dart), very popular in popular ideas of
human evolution & even still in PA, that human ancestors started running on
2 legs to cover long distances on the savanna, that they lost their fur to
sweat when running over hot & open African plains etc., then developed fat
layers to compensate for this fur loss etc.etc. Incredible, no?
