What type of humans do scientists believe cavemen were?

Cavemen were early humans who lived during the Paleolithic era, which began about 2.6 million years ago and lasted until about 10,000 years ago. They were not a specific type of human, but rather a diverse group of hominids that included Neanderthals, Homo sapiens, and other extinct species. These early humans were characterized by their reliance on hunting and gathering for survival and their use of stone tools.
