This is a really bad example of an anachronism, stop using it. They carbon dated a camel remain found in a particular settlement and are using it as the upper bound for domestication when it should be the lower bound. That's silly. Earlier this week on HN we saw evidence that camel statues in Saudia Arabia date to 5k BC or so. Clearly people have been interacting with camels in the region for quite a while.
