Only recently has the response changed from "here" to something more descriptive.

Did cavemen not know Marco Polo?

Only Asians in the 13th century knew him.

It's weird how he ended up in swimming pools.

I still like to answer here. For extra annoying points I can add 'turn around' a couple times.

Pretty sure people have used more descriptive answers since the dawn of language too whenever sound wasn't a reliable direction indicator.

Maybe "up", "down" or "over".
