Question 3 • CSD Summer 2026 Human Geography

Which of the following statements is false?

Answer
A
Permanent settlements emerged during the Neolithic Era.
B
The Neolithic Era is called "new" because of the shift away from nomadic societies.
C
Ancient Mesopotamian civilizations were the first to use the wheel.
D
Copper and bronze were first used for toolmaking during the Paleolithic Era.

Explanation

Copper and bronze were not first used during the Paleolithic Era, when people relied mainly on stone, bone, and wood tools. Copper use began much later, and bronze tools followed during the Bronze Age. Therefore, the false statement is “Copper and bronze were first used for toolmaking during the Paleolithic Era.”
