Cro-magnons
They were called hominids or humanoids.

People who study hominids are called paleoanthropologists. They specialize in the study of human evolution and the fossil record of early human ancestors.
Humans and their human-like ancestors are called hominins. This includes species such as Homo sapiens (modern humans) and other related species that have characteristics similar to humans.
