To verify your answer, let's break down the options:
A. "Prehistory is the time before modern human beings existed." This option suggests that prehistory refers to a time before modern humans existed. While this is partly true since prehistory does encompass the time before the existence of written records and recorded history, it is not a complete definition of prehistory.
B. "Prehistory is the time before people left written records." This option emphasizes that prehistory is a period without written documentation. It aligns with the concept that prehistory predates the development of writing.
C. "Prehistory is the time before people created calendars." This option suggests that prehistory is the period before the creation of calendars. While calendars are an important tool for keeping track of time, this option is not the defining characteristic of prehistory.
D. "Prehistory is the time before people began to study history." This option implies that prehistory refers to a period before studying or documenting history. It aligns with the understanding that prehistory cannot be studied directly and relies on indirect evidence such as fossils, artifacts, and archaeological findings.
Based on the explanations provided, B is the most accurate answer. Prehistory refers to the time before people left written records. This period predates the existence of written documents and recorded history.
