    This book presents the latest evidence on the controversial 'Waterside
    Ape' theory of human evolution, what used to be known as the 'Aquatic Ape' theory.
    The traditional 'Savannah Ape' theory that early hominid apes evolved on
    the grass plains of East Africa 6 - 7 million years ago from our quadruped
    ape ancestors by coming down from the trees on to the savannah and stood upright in order to see further, has been accepted by archaeologists and anthropologists since before the time of Darwin, based on geological and
    fossil evidence.
    Recent scientific evidence largely discredites this hypothesis, but
    mainstream teaching and public understanding is still based on traditional lines.
