What was prehistoric humor like, /his/?

This is tangential, but chimpanzees have told jokes by putting shoes on their head and repeatedly signing the word "hat" while laughing.
>>
>>1305247
Lots of rape, probably
>>
>>1305247
Shit and piss jokes. These are the most relatable, regardless of background, which is why even children find them funny.
>>
>>1305247
jokes on how i raped your daughter, you being my father
>>
>>1305358
This, plus probably a lot of jokes about the weather or animals. Great Plains humor was heavily about these topics as I recall.

Chimps are some of the most violent animals on the planet.

Relating in some way to taboo breaking and schadenfreude (same as today) - e.g Rogu just stepped in Ug's shit haha, Rogu's spear missed the mastodon and hit Ug in his face, lol! Etc

even if people aren't really that biologically different their sense of humour is probably heavily affected by their way of life, which is very different for most people now that it was tens of thousands of years ago
just guessing but it makes sense to me
>>
did they have memes tho

Is there a video/source for this? It's not that I don't believe you but I want to witness this hilarity myself.

Prehistoric people are still around today. We need to send armored linguistics to Sentinel Island and find out their jokes and memes.
