Protohistoric is a term sometimes used to denote those matters relating to the beginnings of historical records, that is, when such records have not put on an authentic shape or their meanings are clouded in the obscurity of the long distant past.
Prehistoric denotes those matters relating to a period antedating history and for an account of which we have no written records.
