OK sage, would you tell me are the words like Latin prognatus prefixed

But I have. The Latin word "progantus" is indeed prefixed. The Latin
prefix "pro-" corresponds to the English "for(e)-", the German "vor-",
the Polish "pro-" and "przed-", and the Serbian "pro-" and "pred-".
For more information, see:

http://www.bartleby.com/61/roots/IE395.html

The "gn" in "prognatus" comes from the PIE stem "gen-", which means
"give birth to, beget. See:

http://www.bartleby.com/61/roots/IE143.html

As for the Greek-derivous "prognathous", the Greek prefix "pro-" is
cognate with the prefixes listed abouve, and the stem "gnatho" is
derived from one of two Pie stems "genu-", the first of which means
"knee", and the other of which means "jaw, chin". See:
