What language cavemen could program in?

C/C++ syntax is quite unforgiving for mistakes, and cavemen weren't good abstract thinkers.
I think something like a variant of LISP or Forth could be used to teach a cavemen basic programming.
Haskell or restricted subset of it, would look like pseudocode and could be more palatable to primitive cavemen

Cavemen don't have developed natural language, so they require language to be symbolic, which leaves only Lisp. Although you would have to replace CAR/CDR with some more appropriate graphemes.
