Apeman

"Apeman" is a non-scientific term that can allude to several things that generally have some of the traits of both other apes and humans:

• Tarzan, sometimes referred to as an "Apeman"
• Paleolithic humans, especially in the form of the stereotypical caveman
• The term may sometimes refer to extinct early human ancestors, such as the undiscovered missing link between apes and humans. Several early hominids could be considered examples.
• Alternatively, the term may refer to such cryptozoological creatures as Bigfoot or Yeti, which presumably possess some of the traits of both species
• Humanzee, hypothetical human-chimpanzee hybrids
• Ape-like beings that have distinctly human traits are not uncommon in fiction, most notably in the Planet of the Apes (novel) series
• Ape-Man, a comics book character
• "Apeman" (song), a song by The Kinks
• The Apemen, Dutch surf rock band
