The Holocene (/ ˈhɒl.əsiːn, - oʊ -, ˈhoʊ.lə -, - loʊ -/) [ 2 ][ 3 ] is the current geological epoch, beginning approximately 11,700 years ago. [ 4 ] It follows the Last Glacial Period, which concluded with the Holocene glacial retreat. [ 4 ] The Holocene and the preceding Pleistocene [ 5 ] together form the Quaternary period.
The Holocene Climate Optimum (HCO) was a warm period in the first half of the Holocene epoch, that occurred in the interval roughly 9,500 to 5,500 years BP, [ 1 ] with a thermal maximum around 8000 years BP. It has also been known by many other names, such as Altithermal, Climatic Optimum, Holocene Megathermal, Holocene Optimum, Holocene ...
The Holocene calendar, also known as the Holocene Era or Human Era (HE), is a year numbering system that adds exactly 10,000 years to the currently dominant (AD/BC or CE/BCE) numbering scheme, placing its first year near the beginning of the Holocene geological epoch and the Neolithic Revolution, when humans shifted from a hunter-gatherer lifestyle to agriculture and fixed settlements.

Before a change was finally confirmed in 2009 by the International ...
The Holocene glacial retreat is a geographical phenomenon that involved the global retreat of glaciers (deglaciation) that previously had advanced during the Last Glacial Maximum. Ice sheet retreat initiated ca. 19,000 years ago and accelerated after ca. 15,000 years ago. The Holocene, starting with abrupt warming 11,700 years ago, resulted in ...
