    I think shell middens are drastically under studied -- under
    searched for -- but aren't they a "latter day" development?

    I mean, humans had to already be diving in order to produce
    middens. They had to remain in a single stretch of the coast,
    exploiting as much of a given area as possible, to produce
    these middens... diving under the waves... below the water
    line...

    Yes, very likely.
