I think that is false because Prehistory means BEFORE history and before Written records was Oral traditions (Information passed on by mouth) and there was no written records until the time passed.

The claim that "Prehistory includes the time prior to the use of written records" is True. Prehistory spans back to around 2.6 million years ago and continues until approximately 3000 BCE, serving as a crucial context for later historical developments. This period is characterized by the absence of writing but is rich in archaeological findings that reveal early human life.
