Thereafter the great sheets of ice which advanced and retreated during the Ice Ages smoothed out the contours of the hills and large glaciers scooped out the wide valleys.

From that time and before Namibia has ghost rivers left behind when the ice age glaciers crawled across the land, it has the tracks of dinosaurs embedded in sandstone where they once walked and the coast which originated simultaneously with the Atlantic ocean when primordial forces changed the face of the planet.
The moraine is the product of the last Ice Age when retreating glaciers left behind mounds of sand, silt and gravel.
Formed by rising seas as the glaciers of the last Ice Age melted, the island of Ireland boasts a long and colourful history that is often interwoven with mythology.

Ithaca is set against a backdrop of deep gorges created by Ice Age glaciers, providing hiking trails through the many state parks and wildlife refuges, as well as water sports and activities on Cayuga Lake.
There are dozens of lakes, all carved out by ice-age glaciers, ranging in size from small ponds to spacious bodies of water that are over 30 meters deep.

His theory was criticized because geologists consider that the Ice Ages of the Pleistocene occur on a regular or periodic basis and his meteor strikes were expected to occur randomly.
However, many ice ages came and went during the Pleistocene without causing mass extinctions and there is no evidence to suggest that the last one was any different from the others.
