The definition of 'pre-historic' assumes that the period was before written records. Obviously easily satisfied for the fossil collectors.
Archaeology concerns itself with the early history of mankind (and other life forms) and attention is usually paid to settlement regions, middens and waste sites, early tool forms and so on.

Recent work in the Pacific in studying the common root of (non-written) languages has helped identify the migration patterns throughout that region.
