humanoid (noun)

Anthropologists and students of human evolution use the noun humanoid to refer to hominins or hominids rarely if ever.

Giving its definition for the noun humanoid Lexico writes:

(especially in science fiction) a being resembling a human in its shape.

‘a three-eyed humanoid’
‘We feel death in these shows in ways we don't in the rubbery cartoon world of humanoids that comprises the Hollywood epic and action film.’

Lexico also gives examples of non-scientific usage of the noun humanoid to refer to pre-humans, but the word is confusing, and betrays a lack of knowledge about theories of human origins — it is best left in the realm of science fiction.
