In general, paleo diet recommends fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, lean meats (especially grass fed and wild game), fish, especially oily fish, oils from plants such as olive oil.
Same thought as Dodger about the fat. In addition, hunter gatherers would have no practical means to process oils out of plants. Think for instance huge heavy stone olive oil presses agrarian people used. Not a mobile device, therefore nomadic people had to depend on fat of animals, not processed (even primitively by today's standards) plant oils for fat. Much healthier IMO. People currently get way too much linoleic acid (omega 6) from processed plant oils for good health.
