If the brain is composed of different parts and one or some of them are dedicated for language does that mean that the concept was always there before humans started communicating.
If so then does that mean that we reached the end of discovery/invention of such concepts since no brain „spaces“ are left.

The brain is a very flexible device. The “speech” center as we have identified it is what is most likely to make you unable to speak if it becomes damaged. That and MRIs where we see what is most active are how we identify different regions, and even then they are not necessarily hard distinctions. Other parts of the brain can compensate for damaged ones in some circumstances.
