According to Anthropology, all modern humans are descended from Cro-Magnon. The name simply refers to the early Homo sapiens existing about 40,000 years ago, this was when humans started to develop culture and new technology, which eventually led to they way we are today. They are called Cro-Magnon because the first fossil of this kind was found in a cave, called Cro-Magnon, in France.

Why do people think you are not descended from apes?

Many people misunderstand or misinterpret the theory of evolution, leading them to believe that humans are not descended from apes but rather that humans and apes share a common ancestor. This misconception can stem from a lack of understanding of evolutionary biology, religious beliefs, or cultural perspectives. Additionally, the term "descended from apes" can be misleading, as it suggests a linear progression rather than a branching tree of evolution. In reality, both modern humans and apes have evolved separately from a shared ancestor millions of years ago.
