[the usual runup]

AAT:
* Aquatic Ape Theory of human evolution (original term E.Morgan 1982)
* Aquarboreal Apes Theory of Mio-Pliocene apes (aqua=water, arbor=tree)
* Amphibious Ancestors Theory of Plio-Pleistocene Homo (AAT strict sense)

AAT s.s. is based on comparisons of the behavior-anatomy-physiology-DNA of
living humans with chimps & other living animals.

Waterside collection of, eg, fruits, coconuts, turtle, bird eggs, shell-,
crayfish, water(side)plants, drowned antelopes, stranded whales etc.
explains unique Homo traits (not seen in apes & australopiths) better than
plains- or forest-dwelling: huge brain, slow-diving skills, breath control,
vocality, small mouth & chewing muscles, tongue bone descent, longer airway,
projecting nose, poor sense of smell, handiness & tool use, late puberty,
long legs, alined body, poor climbing, flat feet, fur loss, fatness, profuse
sweating, high needs of water, sodium, iodine & poly-unsat.fatty acids...

Homo & Pan split ~6-4 Ma. Homo populations dispersed along
lakes/shores/rivers in savannas & elsewhere, eg, crossed 18 km sea to reach
Flores 0.8 Ma.
Homo tools/fossils 2.5-0.1 Ma are found near Rift valley lakes & even (sea
level fluctuations hindered fossilisation) Indian Ocean & African coasts:
Mojokerto, Dungo V Baia Farta, Terra Amata, Table Bay, Eritrea...

Got it a bit??

Yea, I've got it. Your list is laughable and your references are
corny. Of course, readers
of this group have known that for a long time, have they not?

Where is your sense of shame?

Got that?
