The Stone Age is divided into two parts, and all of it is prehistoric. The older part is the Paleolithic, which started when the earliest humans began using stone tools, and the later part is the Neolithic, which started when humans began to farm, sometime after 10,000 years ago. The start of the Neolithic depends on where you are referring to, because people began farming at different times in different parts of the world. Assuming you are referring to the Paleolithic, humans in Europe and Asia hunted animals such as mammoths, steppe wisent (the European equivalent of bison), horses, deer, etc. In the Americas, the people would have hunted mammoths, mastodons, camels, deer, horses, etc. These would have been used primarily for food, but the bones could have been used for toolmaking, the tendons could have been used like a tough fiber for tying things together, and the hides could have been used for warm clothing and to make portable shelters. In Africa, animals hunted by Paleolithic people probably included antelope, gazelle, wildebeest, etc.
