Prehistoric era

The Prehistoric era refers to the time in human history before written records existed, roughly spanning from the emergence of our species around 2.5 million years ago to about 3,000 BCE. It includes significant periods such as the Stone Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Age. Prehistoric humans were primarily hunter-gatherers, developing tools, art, and social structures. They adapted to various environments, leading to the establishment of early communities. Archeological findings, like cave paintings and artifacts, provide insights into their lives, cultures, and the evolution of human behavior before the advent of written language.
