Split Apes from Humans??

I have yet to read the nature article but I would say the split indicates at Gorilla from Humans/Pan species not humans from other apes. The split for Homo/Pan is about 6 million years ago. --Cody.Pope 12:42, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Gorillas <-> Chimpanzees <-> Humans

Per Chimpanzee: "It is thought that humans shared a common ancestor with chimpanzees as recently as four to seven million years ago", though we're still waiting on a cite for that. We may want to be sure that Chororapithecus abyssinicus clarifies the Gorilla/Chimpanzee/Human lineage. -- Writtenonsand 13:22, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
