Prehistory means before the invention of writing. Remember that there is a difference between proto-writing and true writing. Protowriting happened about 9,000 years ago in 7th millenium BC.

Egypt's prehistory begans 5,200 years ago, or 3,200 BCE.

Human prehistory begins about 200,000 years ago. However, there are many carved rocks and evidences of hunting, art, etc. from before then, that can be classified under homininae, the broader class of standing up-right human cousins.
