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.

In a time long before cities and towns, when the earth was still young and untamed, there lived a tribe of cavemen. They roamed the land, hunting for food and sheltering in caves at night, never knowing what dangers lurked around them.
One member of the tribe stood out from the others. His name was Grug, and he was bigger and stronger than the rest. His broad shoulders and muscular arms made him the envy of the other men. Grug was also smarter than the rest, and he could hunt and track animals better than anyone in the tribe.
One day, Grug and his hunting party set out to find food for the tribe. They walked for hours, tracking a herd of mammoths across the plains. As they approached the mammoths, Grug signaled for the others to wait. He crept closer to the animals, watching their every move.
Suddenly, a group of rival cavemen appeared, armed with spears and clubs. They had been following Grug's tribe, hoping to steal their food and women. Grug knew what he had to do. He signaled to his hunting party, and they charged at the rival tribe.
The two groups clashed in a fierce battle, with Grug leading the charge. He swung his club with all his might, knocking down rival cavemen left and right. Blood was spilled on the ground, but Grug's tribe emerged victorious.
As they celebrated their victory, Grug knew that he had to protect his tribe from any future threats. He began to teach the other men how to hunt and fight, passing on his knowledge and skills to the next generation.
And so, Grug became a legend among his people. His strength and intelligence ensured the survival of his tribe, and his legacy lived on for generations to come.
