• Anthropogenesis — The long and complex historical and biological process of the emergence, formation, and development of the human species, starting from the first hominid primates up to modern man (Homo sapiens). This scientific discipline studies the laws of human emergence, the correlations between biological (hominization) and socio-cultural (humanization) evolution, drawing on paleoanthropological, archaeological, and genetic evidence.
• Anthropogeny — A branch of anthropology and evolutionary biology dealing specifically with the study of the origin, emergence, and development of the human species; a synonymous variant for anthropogenesis. The term denotes the system of scientific theories and field research aimed at reconstructing humanity's family tree through osteological and genetic evidence.
