  I wasn’t sure of you meant with each other in conversation or with other communities around the world.
  
  With each other: There is lots of evidence for early language and as our ancestors lived in communiities they would have to have communicated some how. It is unlikly that it was anything like our language today and more like that of the great apes I think. As humans evolved so did their language skills. Early humans in the stone age could talk and we have evidence of cave drawings and crafts they made so we know they were able to communicate really well.
  
  However in general they could not communicate with other people round the world, they would have to be within traveling distance.
  
  Civilization did bring travel by boat and horse back and other means which helped connect people better but this was still a very slow process.
  
  The Internet, air travel and phone revolutionised how we communicate
