  1. It began approximately 110,000 years BP (before present), during the late Pleistocene period (the Pleistocene began 1.8 Million years ago and ended 10,000 years ago). The ice age ended 10,000 years ago, and marks the end of the Pleistocene.  The Pleistocene is succeeded by the period we currently live in (The Holocene).

    The last glacial maximum (when ice was at a peak level) was approximately 20,000 years ago.


  2. It ended about 11000 years ago.
