Early Hominids Ate Just About Everything: The Real Paleo Diet
Simplicity and excessive neatness are prone to creep into reconstructions of human evolution. For instance, our ancestors might have stood on two legs to survey a field of tall grass or might have started speaking when they finally had something to say.
