If sentience isn't a requirement for OM/AM, then you could expect leto
not just to have memories stretching back to the first human, but
possibly all the way back to the origins of life.
I seem to remember him saying something about how to draw the line and
say "this is the first human" (probably in GEoD, but I only have a vague
memory of what he said and where), which could imply that his memory
went back at least into the grey area between human and ape-like pre
human.
