The audience for such a story is humans of this century. As long as the audience can relate to the characters in the story and the problems they face, the story time period is no different than any other historical time period -- the text needs to provide any information needed to understand what's going on.

There have been some traditionally published novels that were set a long time ago.

For example: Earth's Children is a series of epic historical fiction novels written by Jean M. Auel set circa 30,000 years before present. There are six novels in the series. Wikipedia
Authors: Jean M. Auel, Sandra Burr, Jean M. Untinen-Auel
