That map strongly supports that coastal migration scenario, doesn't it?
LGM was around 20,000 BP.
Sea levels were even lower in earlier times. Between 50 and 100 KYA sea level was upto 750 feet below current levels. That must have been the era that Valsequillo Man's grand daddy was en-route towards central Mexico.
During LGM sea level was a 'mere' 350 feet below the present. But that was enough too, as that map shows.
