Hey Marco, Whatever happened to the aquatic phase? Did you phase it
out?
Yes, as he is currently stating:
"Aquatic Ape Theory" is an inaccurate term: it's not about apes, nor
about
having been aquatic. AAT states that our ancestors sometime after the
Homo/Pan split relied partly on aquatic resources:
- "Homo": AAT, contrary to what many PAs think, has nothing to do with
australopiths, c
- "littoral": it's about our ancestors having been shoreline dwellers
(coast/lake/riverside),
- "diaspora": Homo remains 1.8 Ma are found in places as far as Ain
Hanech
(Algeria), Dmanisi (Georgia), Mojokerto (Java) etc.: AAT simply says
that
these people got there along shorelines, not over dry plains. Leading
PAs
such as Ph.Tobias http://allserv.rug.ac.be/~mvaneech/outthere.htm &
Chr.Stringer now agree with a "wet" past & shoreline dispersals
