Would recommend the book "sapiens" by yuval nosh harari. It gives a great overview of our evolution and there's a few chapters on tribal/pre-agricultural society.

As for numbers, it was roughly in between around 100 000 years ago till around 12 000 years ago.

The original meaning was Family and Extended Family.

Depends. There were still great numbers of nomadic and settled tribes well into the middle ages, really not very long ago, everywhere bar western/central Europe and the mediterranean, which were also mostly tribal prior to the Roman Empire.

If hunter-gatherer type tribes, tens of thousands of years ago
