From what I understand, nobody has ever found a direct link, linking humans to apes. I believe God created Adam and Eve fully human.
Except for all the ones we do have. Here is a short list of the transitional species we have linking us to our common ancestor with chimpanzees:
H. habilis
H. gautengensis
H. rudolfensis
H. georgicus
H. ergaster
H. erectus
H. cepranensis
H. antecessor
H. heidelbergensis
H. rhodesiensis
H. neanderthalensis
H. floresiensis
H. Sapiens
These aren't in any particular order the most immediate ancestor to fully modern humans is believed to be Homo Heidelbergensis. Besides it doesn't stop there, fossils actually make up about 2% of the modern evidence for evolution. Today, we use genetics and molecular biology and it is absolutely definitive we do share a common ancestor with non-human primates.
There isn't one. Modern humans and modern great apes share a common ancestor, about 6million years ago. Both groups went through many changes after the original divergence.
Human ancestors include afarensis, habilus, robustus, sapiens archaic....
Modern great apes, the chimps, orangs, and gorillas, all have a similar line of descent.
We branched off hundred thousand years ago from our common ancestor. Really- how many bones do we find from that long ago and longer. However, the proof is in the DNA, whether we ever find bones of our ancestors or not.
You should be in awe of the connections that we have made with such few samples of past creatures, rather than believe in a story, that if were true, we would never have survived as a species due to inbreeding.
