The prehistoric age in the subject science or history?

Question

So, for history you're learning about, well, history. What if we go back so much in time, we're in the prehistoric age? Wouldn't that be in the science area? But it's history, isn't it?

Answer 1

It's both, it just depends on how you are talking about it.  If you were talking about 'this is what happened then, and these animals lived here' strickly, then it would be history.  If you were to say that 'these animals lived here because of this migration pattern and this eruption caused the extiction of this animal' then you would generally say it's science.  But it is a very fine line.  Most history deals with science and vise versa

Answer 2

i say science cuz i did a project for science about the prehistoric era

Answer 3

Some people say its depend History or Science

Answer 4

HMM? but if we  were to go from prehistoric time to now wouldn't that be like sci-fi? but it's just the future, insn't it??? ;) just a thought!!!

Answer 5

Both

Answer 6

I'd say science more than history since it's PREhistoric, so it's before history, and science is used to find out more about that far in the past, rather than reading a manuscript written by some guy a long time ago.
