I am aware of that which is why I said large scale the "stone age" type fighting more than likely mostly consisted of small skirmishes between groups you need an organized nation state to really have a large army.The Egyptians and Babylonians where the first to have large some what organized armies but they only fought mostly regional battles.The Greeks and the Persians where the first to have large armies that consisted at least partly of full time professionals and also to fight major conflicts that lasted years even decades.
