Answer:

Mesoamerica

Step-by-step explanation:

The first place that developed agriculture, according to our present knowledge of humans, was Mesopotamia. This was quickly followed by the Nile River Valley, the Indus River Valley and China. All of these civilizations shared the characteristic of being near a source of water (Tigris and Euphrates rivers, Nile River, Indus River and Yellow River). Out of the options, the last place to develop agriculture was Mesoamerica, as humans took a very long time to be able to migrate to America from their original birthplace in Africa.
