Let's discuss the topic of a Paleo diet
First, lets look at the similarities
Both diets: No grains, no legumes, no seed oils, eat animals head-to-tail, prefer grass-fed meat and free-range eggs, both like gelatin
Then gray areas
Sugar, dairy: Paleo dieters generally shy away from sugar and dairy, but they're not 100% outlawed, while on a Peat diet, they're a major component and encouraged
Now parts where disagreements abound
Nuts, seeds: Paleo dieters generally are quite a fan of these and usually eat too much
Meat: Paleo dieters generally seem to eat too much meat and they like their pork+poultry
Vegetables: Paleo dieters LOVE their veggies, a stereotypical paleo meal is broccoli+steak
Fish: High PUFA fish on paleo
So, with these comparisons, we can see that the two diets are pretty similar. In fact, I'd say the Paleo diet is the closest popular diet to a Peat diet. I'd even go as far to say that a Peat diet is a Paleo diet, brought to it's logical conclusion. If we look at history, we can see that humans have been hunting fruit and honey for thousands upon thousands of years. A Peat diet also emphasizes food thats are made for consumption like eggs, fruit, honey and dairy. While a Paleo has more of an emphasis on foods that aren't made to eat, like nuts, seeds and specifically, vegetables.
