I meant 1/3:1/3:1/3,  or  1/3 each carbo, prot and fat. I think too much
emphasis is put on these ratios. The diet of native paleo peoples would vary
considerably, depending on what they would have available. All you can do is
average it. If anything I would think the fat and protein would be quite
high, since in this case their staple was acorns, which are fairly high in
fat and protein, and a lot of insects and grubs, which are all fat and
protein.
