A replica of the Lyuba mummy baby woolly mammoth (who died 42,000 years ago and was discovered in 2007 in Siberia). The Mammoth Site is a fascinating museum and active paleontological site in the town of Hot Springs, in the Black Hills, South Dakota, USA. (The original Lyuba mummy is a permanent exhibit of the Shemakovsky Museum in Salekhard, Russia.) The Pleistocene, often referred to as the Ice Age, is the geological epoch that lasted from about 2,580,000 to 11,700 years ago, spanning the earth's most recent period of repeated glaciations. The most recent glaciation period reached peak conditions some 18,000 years ago before yielding to the interglacial Holocene epoch 11,700 years ago.
