Answer: the Sahara region was steadily drying

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Mesolithic period, Caspian culture dominated the eastern part of North Africa with Neolithic farmers becoming predominant by 6000 BC. Over this period, the Sahara region was steadily drying, creating a barrier between North Africa and the rest of Africa.

Hope this helps
