Thanks a lot for your excellent WHAT-talks, Algis!
Peter Rhys-Evans: 74 % of neandertals had ear exostoses, and males>females: such exostoses only develop in swimmers+divers in colder water (<20°C?): apparently all neandertal men & many women very frequently dived: at least seasonally.
Paranasal sinuses (PNSs) are what the word says: around the nasal air entrance:
PNSs possibly hinder deeper diving, but H.erectus has small PNSs (salt water).
PNSs were much larger in neandertal & sapiens:
- neandertals dived more often in fresh water,
- they had a diving cycle with back-floating (nose up) between 2 dives.
Why no SC fat in humans frontally?
Probably hydrodynamically there was no place there for SC fat:
most of our fat is where you could expect: at the abdomen & around the trunk: hydrodynamism.
