Most of what we know about the work balance of pre historical humans is very speculative and based on very thin evidence.
In the strictest sense of pre-historical, sure.
In the sense of peoples who live in circumstances and technological constraints comparable to those pre-historical humans, we have plenty of evidence and ethnographic studies.
