"Man" is a noun, and nouns in English don't generally have a tense as verbs do. However, if you're looking for a way to denote a man from the past, you might use the term "former man" or "man of the past". If you were thinking in terms of verbs, like "to man a station", the past tense would be "manned". How have you encountered this word? Is there a sentence you're trying to construct?
