The term "Hominidae" refers to the classification of Family to which all human beings belong. Currently there is but one species in that family, namely us, but anciently there were other branches. About four or five million years ago, Hominidae separated from Pongidae, the great apes. That branch further branched, producing Homo habilis, H. ergaster, H. erectus and H. heidelbergensis, which led to us, and the branches of Paranthropus and Pithacanthropus, which didn't. The closest branch to Homo sapiens sapiens is Homo sapiens neanderthalensis.
