... A sub-era of the Cenozoic era that began 1.81 Ma ago and continues to the present day. Because human activity has become a significant global influence during this time, the Quaternary is sometimes known informally as the Anthropogene. The sub-era comprises the Pleistocene and Holocene epochs and is noted for numerous major ice-sheet advances in the northern hemisphere. By the Pleistocene most of the faunas and floras had a modern appearance. In the most recent revision of the geologic time scale (see appendix) sub-eras have been dropped, so...
