Which of the following regarding Europe by 10,000 B.P. is FALSE?

Question 1 options:

The range of hunting, gathering, and fishing populations extended to the formerly glaciated British Isles and Scandinavia.

The process of preserving meat and fish by smoking and salting grew increasingly important.

As a consequence of the increase in forest species, people increasingly practiced new hunting techniques, mainly solitary stalking and trapping, similar to more recent practices of many Native American groups.

The continent’s coasts and lakes were fished intensively with new technologies such as the characteristic Mesolithic stone blades and microliths used as fishhooks and in harpoons.

The continent was forest rather than treeless steppe and tundra, as it had been during the Upper Paleolithic.

It is false that the continent’s coasts and lakes were fished intensively with new technologies such as the characteristic Mesolithic stone blades and microliths used as fishhooks and in harpoons.

While it was true that the stone age humans used stone blades and harpoons, it is not true that the coasts were fished intensively as that would imply that humans relied on fish a lot at the time.

Humans rather relied on hunting more so the fishing was not very intensive.

Other options are wrong because:

Stone age populations really did reach all the way to the British Isles
Finding ways to preserve meat and fish was very important
People came up with new hunting techniques to hunt the animals which came with the forests.

In conclusion, the continent's coasts and lakes were not fished intensively.
