Glacial archaeology is a fascinating field that examines the impact of glaciation on the landscape, and how ancient human activity interacted with the forces of ice and meltwater. The processes of glacial erosion and deposition have left behind a variety of landforms, such as moraines and glacial terraces, which not only shape the topography of the region but may also provide clues to human occupation and activity in prehistoric times.
