I have no idea who this "Tiib" is, Peter, but everybody who believes his Pl=

Obviously, australopiths were fossil relatives of Pan & Gorilla, NOT of us:=
=20
fossil hunters find everywhere lots of ape ancestors, but mysteriously in P=
liocene Africa they only find "human ancestors"... :-DDD Don't they reali=
ze how ridiculously afro+anthropo-centric they are?? (but yes, who prefers=
to find an ape ancestor rather than a human ancestor...)
Whenever these fossil hunters discern a humanlike feature in *their* fossil=
(usu."bipedality"), they say they've found a "human anestor", not realizin=
g that *all* Hominoidea had BP ancestors (Mio-Pliocene), not for running af=
ter antelopes, of course, but simply for wading upright + climbing arms ove=
rhead in swamp forests, as all great apes still do occasionally (in spite o=
f Pleist.coolings?), google e.g. "bonobo wading" illustrations.
How is it possible that there are still idiots who believe that we got flat=
ter feet + short toes & poor olfaction (!!) & external noses & huge brains =
& stone tools to hunt on Afr.savannas, sweating abundantly water+sodium, ru=
nning 3x slower than antelopes?!?=20
We'll (should) know that the Homo-Pan LCA c 5 Ma lived in swamp forests (go=
ogle "aquarboreal"), frequently wading bipedally & climbing vertically (arm=
s overhead) in the branches above the water, most likely in coastal forests=
along the Gulf of Aden, google "WHATtalk verhaegen"):
- Pan followed the E.Afr.coasts, e.g. Au.africanus->robustus->naledi etc. (=
google "naledi verhaegen"),
- Pliocene Homo followed the S.Asian coasts, e.g. H.erectus early-Pleistoce=
ne, see my book, google e.g. "gondwanatalks verhaegen".
