There are no hominids that are identical to modern humans except modern humans ourselves. To be classified as a different species or sub species they have to be different. There are hominids that were very similar to modern humans. Neanderthals for example would not look completely out of place at a party. Even ancient hominids share many characteristics with modern humans. Upright walking stance and intelligent think all be it less than modern humans are common amongst many of our ancestors.

Yea... So the answer is Cro-Magnon... noob...

How can the theory of evolution explain that man homo sapiens sapiens came from earlier species?

Homo sapiens are believed to have evolved from an earlier species, Homo erectus. Once hominids emerged around 2 million years ago, they migrated from Africa and populated the other continents. Several species of hominids existed simultaneously. The earlier hominids included some which were much larger and more powerful than today's humans, and some smaller and weaker. They were not stoop-shouldered with short bow-legs and long arms, with hands dragging on the ground. They were just as upright as modern man, with feet and legs adapted to walking upright. There were also other great apes that (like today's chimps, gorillas and orang-utans) were not adapted to ground dwelling and thus never came into ecological competition with humans. Today there are only 4 genera of great apes left -- Chimps, Gorillas, Orang-utans and humans. For a while, Gibbons were included in that group because they can raise their forearms above their heads like the other apes (old-world monkeys can't do that). But they are so different that they have been grouped in a class of their own.

Which group of hominids was identical to modern humans in skull and tooth structure and height?

The group of hominids that were most similar to modern humans in skull and tooth structure and height were the Cro-Magnon people. Cro-Magnon, an early form of Homo sapiens, lived in Europe around 40,000 to 10,000 years ago. They had a similar anatomy to modern humans, including a high forehead, prominent chin, and tall stature.

What proof do you have that the cro-magnons are real?

There are plenty of Cro-Magnon fossils that have been found in Europe that show dramatic similarities to modern-day humans. This combined with all of the peripheral evidence of the remains (migration patterns, group dynamics, etc.) lead us to the easy conclusions linking Cro-Magnon hominids to modern humans.


Does human beings make a group with animals?

Yes, humans belong to a group of human-like animals known as hominids. However, Homo sapiens is the only surviving species of hominid, the others are extinct. Hominids are in turn part of a larger group called primates, which includes monkeys, apes, and lemurs. These are not extinct although they are endangered. We humans have not been kind to our close animal relatives.
