History is a collection of events that took place in mankinds past. Pre-history are events that took place so long ago that they were not recorded at all.
In prehistory/history it is not recorded but if I were to guess... probably near the ziggutat
You probably mean 'recorded history'. It means the period after writing was invented and it is the period from which written sources can be found. That is apart from prehistory all the periods.

prehistory is before and history is now
Recorded history is history that has already happened and prehistory is history that is about to happen.
Prehistory refers to the time period before the invention of writing, while history covers events after the development of written records. Prehistory includes the study of early humans, their evolution, and ancient civilizations, while history focuses on recorded events, cultures, and societies. The main difference lies in the availability of written sources for documenting and studying these periods.
history
In the most general terms, prehistory differs from history inasmuch as it is that period of time that has occurred before periods in which human ideas and events have been recorded, particularly through writing. In other words, 'history' refers to times or events that have been preserved through records of some kind, while 'prehistory' refers to what came before such records.
