I’m looking for fiction stories set in caveman times. Not post-apocalyptic stories or nomads away from civilization stories mind you, but stories where there is no civilization yet. I’ll take “historical fiction” (if that applies here) or more fantastical settings as long as they have the right vibe.
I’ve always been somewhat fascinated by the Paleolithic. We spent most of our history living as hunter-gatherers, with modern civilization a small blip by comparison, but it doesn’t show up in storytelling that often.

Probably not exactly what you're looking for but the closest thing I've read was Evolution by Stephen Baxter, it's basically a collection of short stories set describing stages of primate evolution, part 1 is prehominid ancestors, part 2 is hominid evolution up to the agricultural revolution, and part 3 is about future human evolution. Part 2 had some stories that sound like what youre looking for.
