What is hominids name means wise man?

The term "hominid" comes from the Latin word "homo," which means 'human being' or 'man'. It reflects the fact that hominids are part of the family Hominidae, which includes modern humans and our closest extinct relatives, such as Neanderthals.


Who is the closest relative to modern humans homo erectus or Australopithecines or Cro-Magnon or Homo habilis?

"Human beings (that's us) are known as homo sapiens sapiens. DNA testing has shown that the closest relative of human beings is Neanderthal Man (homo sapiens neanderthalus). Neanderthal Man is now extinct. The closest living of human beings now is the chimpanzee. Neanderthal Man was a much closer relative to us than the chimpanzee." =============================Mitochondrial DNA testing shows that Neanderthal WAS NOT a genetic ancestor to modern H.Sapiens - but only similar kind of species . Refer to National Geographic:http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/episode/neanderthal-code-3228/04#tab-evolving-view-4 ============================= I hope I did not give anyone the impression that Neanderthal man was our ancestor. The relationship is more like a cousin. How close a cousin Neanderthal man was to us is a good question, but Neanderthal Man was much closer to us than is the chimpanzee.
