[[GibbonUngka]] (Inggris: ''Gibbon'', famili Hylobatidae) dan [[orangutan]] (genus ''Pongo'') adalah kelompok pertama yang berpisah dari garis keturunan menuju [[hominin]], termasuk [[manusia]], kemudian [[gorila]] (genus ''Gorilla''), dan akhirnya [[simpanse]] dan [[bonobo]] (genus ''[[Pan (genus)|Pan]]''). Pemisahan antara garis keturunan hominin dan simpanse diperkirakan terjadi antara 4 dan 8 juta tahun yang lalu, yaitu selama Miosen Akhir.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Dawkins |first=Richard |author-link=Richard Dawkins |url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/56617123 |title=The ancestor's tale : a pilgrimage to the dawn of evolution |date=2004 |publisher=Houghton Mifflin |isbn=0-618-00583-8 |location=Boston |oclc=56617123}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Find Time of Divergence: Hominidae versus Hylobatidae |url=http://www.timetree.org/index.php?taxon_a=Hominidae&taxon_b=Hylobatidae&submit=Search |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150418222205/http://www.timetree.org/index.php?taxon_a=Hominidae&taxon_b=Hylobatidae&submit=Search |archive-date=2015-04-18 |access-date=April 18, 2015 |website=[[TimeTree]]}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |last=Ruvolo |first=M. |date=October 1997 |title=Genetic Diversity in Hominoid Primates |journal=Annual Review of Anthropology |volume=26 |pages=515–540 |doi=10.1146/annurev.anthro.26.1.515 |issn=0084-6570}}</ref><ref name="Ruvolo1997">{{cite journal |last=Ruvolo |first=M |date=March 1997 |title=Molecular Phylogeny of the Hominoids: Inferences from Multiple Independent DNA Sequence Data Sets |journal=Molecular Biology and Evolution |volume=14 |issue=3 |pages=248–265 |doi=10.1093/oxfordjournals.molbev.a025761 |issn=0737-4038 |pmid=9066793 |doi-access=free}}</ref>
