Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

By the time the last Ice Age ended, the groups of humans were still hunter-gatherers who depended on hunting, food gathering and domestication of some animals. The warming experienced by the Earth caused an increase in sea level, generating different rivers, lakes and basins or simply the increase of existing ones.

Mesopotamia was located between the Tigris River and Euphrates in present-day Iraq, this increase in water level overflowed some rivers and allowed the surrounding lands to be bathed with rich minerals that would propitiate agriculture, so the fact that the planet warmed up was a determining factor for humans to settle with their agriculture in territories surrounding rivers such as Mesopotamia, Egypt (Nile River) and the Indus Valley culture.
