An extinct creature said to stand between the great apes and modern humans in its development.
The apeman belongs to older popular accounts of human evolution, when fossils were pictured as a half-ape, half-human link, and it also appears in adventure stories. Scientists now speak of early hominins instead, since evolution does not form a single ladder. The plural is apemen.
