Two million years ago falls within the Pleistocene Epoch, which is part of the Quaternary Period. The Pleistocene is characterized by repeated glacial cycles, where large ice sheets covered significant portions of the Northern Hemisphere. This era is marked by the evolution and spread of early humans and the extinction of many large mammals. The Pleistocene lasted from about 2.6 million to approximately 11,700 years ago.
