I assume you mean Man th Hunter (edited by Richard Lee) based on the 1966
symposium. It was called Man the Hunter for a reason...because man hunts,
which is contrary to your assertion that they ate fruits (and some
insects/eggs).
Man is an omnivore and can eat a wide range of foods. Either provide some
reference to your claim that man is essentially a fruitarian, or stop with your
unfouonded claims.
Also, you keep referring to Africa as if there is a limitless supply of fruit year-
round, which is not the case. There are other parts of the world such as the
arctic and northern europe during the last ice age where fruit was essentially
non-existent, and only available seasonally if you count berries. How do you
explain this situation based on your theory that man ate mainly fruit?
