    Love this. Great work. Great energy you have. Happy to find this. Also imagine if we ate more in the natural alignment from which were divinely designed, way less sickness and diseases throughout. Frugivores and living foods. Wild how we are the “smartest” but lost our ways with this key element of cooked food, especially overcooking and such high temperatures, and combining everything all at once, the and constant carnivore, omnivore, really necrovore living. Way before vegetarian and vegan, this natural earth derived lifestyle would have us thriving today. We are exact flips of all our the rest of these families which we are part of. Wild.

    😞 Very wrong unfortunately: afro- & anthropo-centric prejudices!! Australopiths were fossil relatives of Gorilla (Lucy) or of Pan, not of Homo. Fossil hunters see everywhere "human ancestors", never bonobo or gorilla ancestors! Recent insights in paleo-anthropology: Lucy was an early relative of Gorilla! Most or all "habilis" were probably fossil Pan, esp.bonobo? Google • aquarboreal (how Mio-Pliocene “apes” evolved: already upright!) • GondwanaTalks Verhaegen (English review of 2022 book in Dutch) • Attenborough Verhaegen human waterside ape evolution • Mario Vaneechoutte cs 2024 Nat.Anthrop.2,10007 “Have we been barking up the wrong ancestral tree?" Australopiths were fossil relatives of Pan (chimp+bonobo) or of Gorilla, not of Homo: open access www.sciepublish.com/article/pii/94 Human ancestors were no hunters!! We were predom. omni-frugi-mollusci…vores. The savanna fantasies, esp. the endurance-running nonsense, are the most unscientific just-so stories thinkable: on only 2 flat feet, with no fur, sweating water+salt, running under the hot sun after antelopes… :-DDD The evidence is overwhelming: early-Pleistocene H.erectus (e.g. Java) frequently dived for shellfish (molluscivory): • pachy-osteo-sclerosis: heavy++bones (brittle? “too”much calcium): only slow+shallow-diving spp: Sirenia, earliest Cetacea & Pinnipedia • flat feet = wading, swimming… cf. duck, otter... • frequent auditory exostoses (ear-canal), caused by chronic cold-water immersion • enamel wear ← "sand and oral processing of marine mollusks" Towle cs 2022 doi.org/10.1002/ajpa.24500 • island colonisations = oversea, e.g. Flores, later Luzon... • brain size x2 cf. seafood: DHA & other brain-specific nutrients: dolphin, sea-otter… • fossilised (Mojokerto, Trinil…) amid barnacles, corals, edible mussels Pseudodon, Elongaria… • made shell engravings, google e.g. “Joordens Munro” pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25470048/ • used stone tools + manual dexterity cf. sea-otter • spread early-Pleistocene along coasts+rivers over the Old World etc. Google e.g. “gondwanatalks verhaegen”.

    Is it true that early Neanderthals looked more like classic Neanderthal described as robustly built, short chinned, and large projection of the midface, while later Neanderthals resemble early moderns? Would that be caused by hybridization or parallel evolution or what? I hope we find more fossils.

      prehistoric stone tools are named after the FIRST place that they were found, this is referred to as the 'type site.' So where does the name acheulian come from, ? well the first place they were discovered is a place in France called Saint Acheul, hence the name Acheulian,

    • @hpfrantzy5
      @hpfrantzy5 8 місяців тому

      Exactly. You can't define homoplasy independent of homology, which was circularly redefined to include common descent by declaring common descent proven. But homoplasy and convergent evolution contradict the circular redefinition. Also, molecular family trees are more accurate to biogeography than morphological ones
