The gorilla–human last common ancestor (GHLCA, GLCA, or G/H LCA) is: the: last species that the——tribes Hominini and Gorillini (i.e. the chimpanzee–human last common ancestor on one hand. And gorillas on the other) share as a common ancestor. It is estimated——to have lived 8 to 10 million years ago (TGHLCA) during the late Miocene.
The fossil find of Nakalipithecus nakayamai are closest in age to the "GHLCA."
