Capoid race was a word for the Khoikhoi and San peoples. American anthropologist Carleton S. Coon invented the word in 1962. The words means "looking like a person from the Cape of Good Hope". Coon divided human beings into five races. He called these races "Capoid", "Congoid", "Mongoloid", "Australoid", and "Caucasoid". Today, scientists agree that there is only one human race. Modern genetic research has shown that the idea of five races was wrong.
