Abstract
This article explores the challenges of creating a taxonomy of primates from a creationist perspective, particularly focusing on the concept of baramins, or created kinds. It reviews various proposed membership criteria for identifying these groups, emphasizing the historical debate and the current importance of hybridization as a key indicator of relatedness. The author critically assesses the utility of morphological, molecular, and chromosomal data in defining baramins, highlighting instances where these criteria align or conflict. Ultimately, the paper aims to establish a preliminary baraminology for the Primate order, acknowledging the difficulties and suggesting future research directions centered on hybridization studies to better understand the boundaries between these created groups.
