Nothing about humanoids but flora spreading via a northern land bridge might factor in to assumptions of human dispersal.Not if you're talking 47 million years ago, you're not. Primates in the early Eocene resembled primitive lemurs and lorises, and weren't anything like our immediate ancestors.

Except in one respect...they knew that cashews were DEEEE-LISH!

I meant that plants may have spread on their own sooner rather than as human cargo later.

Ancestral cashews spread through Europe.
Female and minority lemurs and lorises suffered the most.
