Typha latifolia
grows in many parts of the world, it is called reed mace or cattail.
It has been shown that Neandertals ate it.

There is an old computer sitting on my kitchen table. It does not mean
I'm going to have it for dinner.
Cattails have many uses, not all are related to eating.

Some time ago cattails were the subject of a
typically hilarious go-round with MV. He postulated
that Neanderthal diving habits were, in part, indicated
by the remains of cattails identified at some N sites.

Is this your only anti-AAT argument, my boy??
Misrepresenting what other people say.
Sad.

Cattails are, indeed, a nutritious food item and were,
in all likelihood, consumed by Ns but as anyone
who has ever taken a walk in the woods
or fields can easlly observe, cattails are a still
water plant found at the shoreline and can be harvested
without getting your feet wet much less diving.

Yes, cattails, wild rice and other aquatic veg. can be gotten easily
by wading or vertical floating (wet) or by (dry) dugouts as seen in
many traditional peoples. :)

At Gona 2.6 mya = tortoise = ostrich eggs = antelope = meat = early
evolution of Homo, no cattails.







In the aat world, any mention or association of water is a sign of
aquaticness. If you get rained on you're aquatic.
