Prehistoric Man refers to early humans who lived before written records were kept. This period includes various species, such as Homo habilis, Homo erectus, and Neanderthals. They relied on hunting, gathering, and basic tools made from stone, wood, and bone for survival. During this time, prehistoric humans developed essential skills like fire-making and tool crafting. They created cave paintings, which provide insight into their lives and beliefs. The study of prehistoric man helps us understand human evolution and the development of societies, laying the foundation for later civilizations.
