No, humans did not exist during the time of Pangea. Pangea was a supercontinent that existed approximately 335 to 175 million years ago, during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras. Humans, on the other hand, evolved much later. The earliest known human ancestors appeared around 6 to 7 million years ago, and modern humans (Homo sapiens) emerged only about 300,000 years ago. This means that Pangea had already broken apart into the continents we know today long before humans or even their earliest ancestors walked the Earth.
