The title implies that ancient man was a "stay at home" dad, while mom when out hunting.
I think the women "roamed" because they were kidnapped in battle, or were married off to bring peace or unity between groups. Remember, women were often considered chattel.

Of course, when you're rockin' back in your man-cave, someone has to go out and get your 12 pack of grog, right?
I'm just sayin'...

They figured this out by looking at 19 teeth. You know, the things that pass for science these days...
“Why look, Jane, there’s cat feces in those teeth. They ate cats!”
“No, remember there were feral cats using this ground as a cat box.”
“Damnit! That won’t help us get another grant!”

Wow. I kinda like the image of roving horny women back in the day, complete with club, hunting for a male to breed with.

Not much of a change, the men just stayed living in their mom’s caves, eating mammoth pizza and playing X-Rox all day...
