Why is that, why does it not work as a word, if you break the word down what is wrong with it? Victoriana is a similar word isnt it? Please shed some light here.

First, "historia" is not a word that is used in English. It could be the Latin word for 'history'. If it were a real word, it would be the plural form for the Latin word "historium" --again, not a real word in either English, nor Latin. Therefore, no variations of the word "historia" can be possible.

Now, Victoriana is a different word. Victoriana (Victorian) refers to the arts, culture, and/or movements of the period of Queen Victoria of England (1819-1901)

Yah, you're right....

Prehistiria, You're just running out of time thats why instead of saying... Pre-historic story... You said " Prehistoria" in some other dialics story is storia...

or maybe you only mean the femenine version of pre-historians...
Good Day!!!

"-Ana" is a suffix that forms collective nouns denoting an assembly of items.

So, thought it's not yet a word in the dictionary, it would be prehistoriana.

Historic is a proper word.
History is also a proper word.
Pre means Before.
prehistoria is NOT a real word.
prehistoric is.

it is a real word - in some other language!!! Spanish I think.

We add all sorts of foreign words to our sentences - so there's no reason why you can't add this one :-)
