Very interesting almost archival footage from

Ama Girls (Aka Japan Harvests the Sea) (1958)
Case in point -

"Through the practice, many ama were noted to
lose weight during the months of diving seasons."
WHAT? They aren't FAT? How does aa explain this?

Yes, they look very much like our Pleistocene ancestors along S-Asian coasts:
