Also it was very harsh and those people were crammed into much smaller areas like living on the nile for example or living in oasis areas. Thus the need for order and control arose. Thus kingdoms and civilizations were born. The more people you have the greater chance you have for advancement because you have more random events and people comming up with new ideas. Farming for example. These people were the 1st to practice agriculture, which freed people up to take up differnt pursuits other than hunting. For example military, or learning to brew beer.

Imagine living 20,000 years ago in a country called the 'Black Land', and all of a sudden the ice barrier which kept back the water from the med, just suddenly melted and gave way. And imagine the water rushed in from the med, destroying immediately the 'civilisation' and forced the people to abandon the 'Black Land' and head for Europe. Then imagine the 'Black Land' continued to fill up with water over many hundreds of years, thus creating what we now called the 'Black Sea'.
Now i'm not saying this is FACT, but imagine if this was true, then it's very possible that a civilisation buried underneath the 'Black Sea' (if their is one) could be very well an earlier civilisation than the ones in Egypt or Sumer, couldn't they?
