TC--Under your pre-conceived information of Geologic deposition and uniformitarian processes, sure you would be right, but otherwize, nothing more than a major missconception.
I really don't see how geologic depositional models and the concept of uniforitarianism has any bearing on the discussion of a migration of people. You seem to be dropping some random "big words" into your reply, to give it extra (albeit irrelevant) weight.
Care to bring your thoughts on uniformitarianism to the uniformitarianism topic I started? It's at:

There does not seem to be any good web pages on submarine canyon formation, but turbidity currents seem to be deemed the primary errosive force, in their formation.
Turbidity currents happened in the Archean (I just got done looking at some turbidite deposit rocks, on Saturday). They've happened throughout geologic history, and they continue to happen in these modern times.
Now, what does this have to do with the topic?

From the geology glossary, of this site:
Turbidity current - A current in air, water, or any other fluid caused by differences in the amount of suspended matter (such as mud, silt, or volcanic dust). Marine turbidity currents, laden with suspended sediment, move rapidly down continental slopes and spread out over the abyssal floor.
