Lee thinks everything is savanna.

Good news for DD and Marc. A seashore-marine cave was discovered at
Casablanca and is an ideal test location for possible marine-resource
utilization by Pleistocene Homo.

Hard evidence for at least some of the nutritious-seafood remains
predicted by the aquatic-ape theorists should be found here. Kelp,
"Coconuts, shells, algae etc. explains unique Homo traits"
predicted by Marc et al.

Excavation results:
1) Giant baboons.
2) Gazelle.
3) Zebra.
4) Saber-tooth cat
5) Antelope, etc.
6) Homo
7) Flakes
8) Bifaces
9) Seafood = zero
