It is generally believed that modern languages developed after the end of the last ice age. Before that, communication was by means of proto-language. Proto-language (or pre-language) lacked a fully-developed syntax; tense, aspect, auxiliary verbs, etc.; and a closed (non-lexical) vocabulary. It was a stage in the evolution of language somewhere between great ape language and fully developed modern human language. No traces of any proto-language exist and they are unnamed.

It is difficult to definitively know what language was spoken during the ice age as language leaves no physical trace. However, it is believed that early humans likely communicated using a form of proto-language or a combination of simple vocalizations, gestures, and body language. These early forms of communication would have evolved over time into the complex languages we have today.
