If man evolved from apes, what did apes evolve from?

All mammals have a long and complex lineage. The first mammals branched off from reptiles about 200 or more million years ago. Apes evolved from an ancient group of possum-like tree mammals millions of years ago. These mammals diversified 65 million years ago after the death of the dinosaurs, branching off into all the different mammals of today. One group of mammals took to the trees, developing long tails, opposed thumbs and flat faces, eventually becoming apes.
