"a dip in global carbon dioxide levels caused by the abandonment of native farms across the Americas following the deaths of millions of indigenous people in the aftermath of European colonisation."

Wouldn't this suggest that the advent of native farming had previously caused a rise in global carbon dioxide levels, and consequently that the human epoch began much earlier?
