That warmer period wasn't the reason for the development of the agriculture. It wasn't that much warmer for starters. The animals and plants they domesticated and cultivated, didn't just pop up during a thousand year or so, when it got a tad warmer. The stuff were already there, people just learned to cultivate and domesticate it.
Not to mention that there were no glaciers in Africa-Middle-East to start with. Although warmer weather did help in certain regions, but it was not the reason.
