Re: Brain Size and diet?

My interpretation was that it was the shift to a heavily omnivorus diet, instead of a primarily herbivorus one that let our brains swell. Of course the aquatic ape theory does push the sea food diet. Neanderthals were supposed to be more than 50% carnivorus, which might explain their craniums.
