My little boy, what on earth has that to do with AAT??
Nothing has anything to do with AAT
Ah??
Inform a bit:
Aquatic Ape
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AAT
Description:
* Comparative & fossil information on human & ape evolution.
* Waterside diaspora of Homo after Homo & Pan split ~5 Ma.
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.
Collection of waterside foods (eg, fruits, (coco)nuts, turtle & bird eggs,
shell & crayfish, water(side)plants, drowned herbivores, stranded whales
etc.) explains unique Homo traits (not seen in apes & australopiths) better
than dwelling in forests or dry plains: 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 (DHA), etc.
Homo & Pan separated ~64 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 2.50.1 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 etc.
