The origins of prehistoric man is filled with controversy. Now you can add one more question to the mix thanks to a discovery off the coast of California.
A team recently found a number of finely crafted stone spear heads, fishing tackle, and other tools which provided evidence of a culture relying on seafaring abilities for its livelihood.
It is thought these sites provided fowl, shellfish, and even otters, seals, and sea lions in addition to fish.
The story first appeared in Science, and was later rehashed in New Scientist and Science Daily.
