The present ice age, which started about 2.6 million years ago, has not ended; we are just in a warm period called an interglacial. As far as the last glaciation is concerned, the date of its ending varies depending on what part of the world you live. For those in a maritime climate such as Western Europe, it would have ended earlier than those in northern Asia or the North American continent; between 13,000 and 10,000 years ago.
