Detailed Solution

The Mesolithic period witnessed extreme changes in climatic conditions.
The Mesolithic period spans from around 12,000 to 10,000 years ago when environmental changes took place. The Mesolithic Period is also known as the Middle Stone Age. A change in climatic conditions occurred during this period in human history. Temperature rise facilitated the growth of plants. As grasslands expanded, so did the animal population. The small stone tools discovered during this period are known as microliths. Microliths likely adhered to handles made of bone or wood to create tools like saws and sickles.
