The term falls outside the usual naming conventions for early humans and is used in a general sense to describe the oldest modern people in Europe, though also a specific (but very frequent) subtype among their fossil remains
from your own source
while Cro-Magnons were well in the average of modern Europeans. mtDNA retrieved from two Cro-Magnon specimens was identified as Haplogroup N. [5] Haplogroup N is found among modern populations of the Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia, and its descendant haplogroups are found among modern Eurasian and Native American populations.

quote mining is bad m'kay
cro-magnon is a slang term for early european settling humans
they are the first europeans and have slight structural differances in the same way caucasions negroid and mongaloid skeletal structures do, on the out side there is minor change and nothig to make a deal out of
its like asking if the germanic tribes thought romans were gods because they had slightly smaller frames and had darker eye and hair or vice versa
and even the tool use is wrong
its not like the concistadors turning up in central america riding horses wearing metal armour with metal weapons and boom sticks as opposed to runing around in wood armour with stone tools
the differance is if a tribe that spear fishes meets a a tribe that net fishes would they think each other gods
so nope

second the type of farming initially done by man was terribly inefficient and ultimately destroyed the soil in Mesopotamia - why no concept of crop rotation, diverse crops, etc.

probably they came from a loess plain. you don't need to manage your crops when the soil is magic. the soil isn't magic in mesopotamia.

True, but such soils suffer from erosion problems which I believe the Chinese were the first to figure out how to control.
