No, retarded, "Aquatic Ape" aka Waterside aka Littoral simply
means that they exploited marine resources. And they did.
They were already in China working with NextGen tool some 2
million years ago. How did you think they got there? Air France?
They weren't following maps, either. They were consuming
resources along a stretch of beach and when the pickings grew
slim they moved on. Eventually they spanned the continents...
several times over.
Occasionally, individuals and groups would follow freshwater
sources & transitional wetlands, because they were finding
food there, and once inland they adapted, eventually even
radiating out.
This is how we get "Multiregionalism" or "Regional Continuity,"
if you prefer. We know we ended up with a lot of DIFFERENT yet
very closely related populations of Homo. This is how.
The Aquatic Ape populations, following the coast, was the
conduit through which DNA traveled from place to place,
continent to continent.
It kept us one.
