Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Hunter-gatherers chose to live in caves and rock shelters.
The hunter-gatherers were a group of people in prehistoric times who killed wild animals for food and collected plants and plant-based products like nuts, grains, stems, fruits, etc., from the environment. As natural caves offered refuge from the rain, sun, and cold, they opted to live there. The Vindhyas, as well as the Deccan plateau, are home to numerous natural cave systems as well as rock shelters. Due to the obvious harsh environment like the rain, sun, storm, etc., and danger from wild creatures, the hunter-gatherers required a safe environment.
