Has Western Europe been checked more thoroughly than the Middle East? I don't disagree with your point, but it would be interesting to attach some numbers to the assertions.

@MCW I think that depends on the time cutoff for 'prehistoric'. A lot of the early civilizations (Uruk, Mesopotamia, Ancient Egypt) where in the Middle East and the Middle East has been searched for that. Evidence from earlier times of purely hunter-gatherer societies was mostly searched for in Western Europe.

Correct answer, plus add lack of funding to publish results, and publish them in English.
