What did Alexander du toit discover?

Alexander du Toit discovered evidence for continental drift in the early 20th century. He proposed that the continents were once joined together in a single supercontinent called Pangaea, and that over time they drifted apart to form the continents as we know them today. His work laid the foundation for the theory of plate tectonics.


Who were the two scientists who proposed the theory of seafloor spreading in the early 1960?

While two people proposed continental drift (Alfred Wegener and Alexander du Toit), it was just ONE scientist Harry Hess that proposed the mechanism of sea floor spreading to explain how the continents actually moved.
