humans differ so strikingly from the African apes
despite their close genetic relationship. Most

usually attributable to differing environmental
pressures; and hence that our ancestors at some
stage probably occupied a significantly different
habitat from the ancestor of the gorilla and the
chimpanzee. For the last half-century it has been
