What is the last glacier maximum?

The last maximum of the glacial maximum was the time period about 20,000 years ago, when the last glacier period was to the maximum range and the temperature on the planet was the lowest. Although the last glacial period lasted from 110,000 to 15,000 to 10,000 years, it was the most intense just before the end. During the last glacier maximum, huge glaciers appeared most of today's Canada and the North United States (Laurentide Ice Sheet), much of South South America (Patagonian Ice Sheet) and large sectors of northern Europe and northwestern Russia. The British Isles were almost completely under the ice. Instead of the Baltic Sea, the area between Sweden and Norway was full of gigantic glaciers, some up to two miles thick. This temporarily revealed large areas of land that is underwater, such as Beringia (a large area between Russia and Alaska), Doggerland (a large part of today's North Sea), take off (most Indonesia islands) and Sahulland (Australia associated with New Guinea). The Black Sea was much shallowerAnd the Persian Gulf was dry. Both of these river basins were later suddenly filled in flood events that could be catastrophic and could inspire biblical and other flood myths.

Most of the archaeological symptoms of human housing from the last maximum of glaciers are located in Africa, southern Europe, the Middle East, South Asia, Indonesia and Australia. Northern Europe and Asia were largely uninhabited due to the cold, except for refugium without ice called Beringia, which is located around today's Bering Strait, on a large amount of low -lying soil, which is currently immersed. People who lived in Beringia during the last glacier maximum use low levels of sea to migrate to America. It is assumed that this has occurred sometime between about 22,000 and 12,000 BC - the details are not yet solid. It is known that the coast of Alaska and the western Canada would become without ice around 14,000 Ex.nl, which would make the coastal southern migration much.
