The new findings suggest that prior to coming to Europe, Homo sapiens had developed "modern" behavior. It would still be a number of generations, however, for other major advances to be made such as the formation of villages, which developed in the post-glacial period around 13,000 years ago, and the domestication of crops, which began around 9,000 years ago according to current theories.
Technically, yes. Ice ages are not continuous periods of cold, but rather have cycles of colder glacial periods and warmer interglacial periods. We are currently in an interglacial period.
We are currently in an interglacial period, known as the Holocene epoch, which began around 11,700 years ago. We are not in an ice age, which is characterized by extensive glaciation and lower global temperatures.
The time period between ice ages is called an interglacial period. This is a geological term referring to the warmer periods between glaciations when ice sheets retreat and temperatures are generally warmer.
The time period between ice ages is called an interglacial period.
Warm interglacial periods occur approximately every 100,000 years, alternating with colder glacial periods. These cycles are driven by variations in Earth's orbital parameters known as Milankovitch cycles. The most recent warm interglacial period we are currently in is called the Holocene epoch.
We are currently in an interglacial period within the ice age which started about 2.6 million years ago.
The Earth was in an interglacial period of warming called the Sangamon Interglacial at this time period. The Illinois glaciation preceded it, and the Wisconsin episode of glaciation followed it. We are currently in an interglacial period known as the Holocene.

A warm period. But have a crack at "interglacial" in wikipedia.

Yes. We currently live in an "interglacial period" of the Quaternary Ice Age. Some people confuse "ice age" with a "glacial period" within an ice age.
Adjective:Of or relating to a period of milder climate between two glacial periods. Noun:An interglacial period.
The time period between ice ages is called an interglacial period. It is a warmer period in Earth's climate cycle when glaciers recede and temperatures rise.
No, the Earth is not in an ice age right now. The last ice age ended about 10,000 years ago.
