Quote:Evidence for the boats? (Fucking with you Min...lol.)
The fact is we are only going to get indirect evidence for boating. Organic materials used to build boats are not going to survive in a wet environment for 500,000 years.
When we find human artifacts on an island and date them to 800,000 years ago we really only have two choices. They either walked there or they sailed there. I'm assuming we can dismiss air travel 800,000 years ago?
When geology tells us that the waters surrounding the island have never been less than 6 feet deep in the last 2 million years it really only leaves one real means of humans getting to that island.
