It's a long video, over an hour, and it starts slow with
an introductions to the person making the next
introduction (Harvard) but it adds a HUGE body to
the "It started with erectus" arguments.
Also claims that the "unknown ancestor" whose DNA
we see in certain African populations is erectus...
But it's really about language...
"Daniel Everett, "Homo Erectus and the Invention of Human Language"
I obviously disagree with some of the stuff he says about
tools, and the most interesting tidbit I heard this far (and
I'm about halfway done), other than the claim that 100%
fully modern humans are still part erectus, is that there are
3 syllables common to all languages.
But lots & lots of juicy stuff on erectus, some of it will pique
your interest, some might piss you off...

Much blabla IMO.
- H.erectus did not speak AFAICS,
- H.neand. I don't know.
Speech = combination of
-gibbonlike song <- monogamy?
-voluntary breathing <- diving,
-large brain <- seafood, DHA...
-hyoidal descent <- suction feeding: shellfish?
Simply google our paper
"Seafood, diving, song and speech".
