Where did cavemen come from?

they came from primates such as bonoboes, chimpanzees, gorillas, lar gibbons, and orangutans. thoes apes came from lemurs, old world monkeys, new world monkeys, and other primates

Wow, this answer needs soooo much work I am not sure where to begin

You have the germ of the idea correct (Evolved) but naming modern day primates and saying cavemen came from them is , on the face of it, absurd.

(MAN is not the only thing that evolves, other primates did too...)

is the best way to go here...
