Answer :
Hominoids are clearly present in Middle and Late Miocene taxa, and by the end of the Miocene, the majority of these taxa could be classified as either pongine (Pongo) or hominine (African ape and human).
Though there have been some suggested candidates, the hylobatid clade (gibbons and siamangs) has no conclusive fossil record. Miocene hominoids dispersed throughout Africa, Europe, and Asia in a pattern that is similar to that of many other contemporaneous terrestrial mammals. The emergence of land bridges, modifications in regional and global climatic conditions, and evolutionary innovations allowed for these intercontinental movements. The majority of the characteristics that distinguish hominids evolved in the vast subtropical region that covered much of Eurasia.
