People have always been interested in human origins.
Some uninformed people believe that evolution implies that people evolved from apes.
B. Humans belong to the same clade as the African great apes It s not especially controversial that humans are in the same clade with the African great apes. Based on their data, Sarich and Wilson suggested that humans and African great apes had common ancestor about 5 million years ago, much more recently than was previously suspected. Sarich and Wilson confirmed the close relationship of humans and African great apes, but did not resolve how the three related. This has been the subject of much work, some reviewed below. On morphological grounds, many consider the relationship to still be unresolved.
