Examples of Last
Glacial Maximum (LGM) in the following topics:
-
- Civilization in America began during the last Ice Age when nomadic Paleo-Indians migrated across Beringia.
- While some researchers may debate the “why” and “when” of
migration patterns, all can agree that migration would not have been possible
without a glacial epoch.
- The Last
Glacial Maximum (LGM), which occurred between approximately 18,000 and 20,000
years ago, was the last period in the Earth's climate history when ice sheets
were at their greatest extension.
- The
archeological evidence suggests that the Paleo-Indians' first dispersal into
the Americas occurred near the end of the LGM.
- It is believed that a small Paleo-Indian population of a few thousand survived the Last Glacial Maximum in Beringia.
-
- Many separate indigenous cultures
developed and prospered in North America after the first waves of nomadic
Paleo-Indians migrated to the continent across Beringia near the end of the
Last Glacial Maximum.
- Civilization in America
began during the last Ice Age when nomadic Paleo-Indians migrated across
Beringia.
- Archaeological evidence suggests that
the Paleo-Indians’ first dispersal into the Americas occurred near the end of
the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), or the last period in the Earth’s climate
history when ice sheets were at their greatest
extension.
