Yes, the correct answer is b) a location where groups ceased roaming and built permanent dwellings. Settlement in the context of the history of civilization refers to the transition from a nomadic lifestyle to a more sedentary one, where groups of people stopped moving from place to place and instead established permanent settlements or villages.

Right again! :-)
