Not individual settlements, but roughly the same areas stay populated over the whole timeframe. And while there were less humans around, they were still distributed over the whole world.

A simple counter-example to both 'same areas stay populated' and 'humans were all over the world' is human migration to the Americas which started, let's say 20kya, at the very low end of your 'tens of millennia' scale.
