I think the argument here is whether humans' long distance running abilities are a function of evolution or merely a sidebar benefit. Unfortunately proving it either way would be a bitch and a half given how sparse the evidence is.

And Martins, there is evidence of wild grains being consumed by pre-agrarian societies and by hunter-gatherer groups that encouraged certain flora to grow but didn't really 'farm'. But you're right about the environment for early humans, I was thinking back to the 5-8 MYA time range for hominids.


If you compared paleolithic skeletons to neolithic ones, you will see that we are now shorter, have a lower bone density, and have worse teeth. Humans have not evolved to eat grass seeds (grains). They don't want to be eaten anyway.
