The archaeology of North Africa remains enigmatic...

I'll admit it's a sort of an enigma that anybody could earn his living turning up monkey bones and human footprints in the same place and claiming that to be evidence of a monkey with human-like feet (Lucy) rather than evidence of a human with a pet monkey having lived near the spot...

You make a very interesting point, Pet Monkey. Dogs were said to be with cave men so why not train a monkey to harvest fruit and such?

Yeah. And if you couldn’t train the monkey you could always eat him.
