Definition of Prehistory[]
Anything prehistoric pertains, in its most common usage, to prehistory, viewed as the bygone ages of mankind for which we have no written record of past events. Within such a simple definition, prehistoric means "before the invention of writing" and historic means "after the invention of writing", or, more correctly, after the start of recordkeeping.
