Thanks, Mario. It says that some hominid fossils (which? the text says
"human ancestors" - we have to await the paper in PNAS) had ankle features
that were more human than chimp-like: they seem to have had limited ankle
dorsiflexion. If their "human ancestors" 4 Ma were apiths, there's
nothing
in it to contradict that apiths were aquarboreal, to the contrary.

Of course there is. Everybody sees it. If aquarborality means
vertical tree climbing, yes, this evidence is against it.

Even Mario can see that.

No evidence for cliff hanging AFAICS, nor for kudu running.

Well, there is NO RESEARCH of cliff hanging at all. Nowhere, not a
tiny bit. Nobody did this, or anything even close to it. Why? I don't know.
I did wrote to some scientiests, but they simply don't get it. Nobody ever
performed such a research. I am just a locomotive engineer, I don't have
time, knowlage or funds to do such a thing. And nobody wants to LISTEN.

If hominid remains were found on a cliff ...
