Hipotesis pra-Adam atau pra-adamisme adalah keyakinan teologi bahwa manusia (atau makhluk non-manusia dan cerdas) telah ada sebelum tokoh kitab suci Adam. Sehingga, pra-adamisme berbeda dari keyakinan Yudeo-Kristen konvensional bahwa Adam adalah manusia pertama. Pendukung hipotesis tersebut dikenal sebagai "pra-Adamit", bersama dengan manusia yang mereka yakini telah ada sebelum Adam.
