Ice Age Man on Sicily

Ice Age Man on Sicily
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/201...182945.htm

Quote:ScienceDaily (Nov. 28, 2012) — Skeletal remains in an island cave in Favignana, Italy, reveal that modern humans first settled in Sicily around the time of the last ice age and despite living on Mediterranean islands, ate little seafood. The research is published November 28 in the open access journal PLOS ONE by Marcello Mannino and colleagues from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Germany.


I'm not so sure about their conclusions here. We have evidence of early man on Crete 130,000 years ago and they would have needed boats to get there.

Boats would mean that no land bridge was necessary across the Straits of Messina.
