Quaternary geochronology is the branch of geology that focuses on dating and studying the Quaternary period, which is the most recent geological time period that spans from approximately 2.58 million years ago to the present. This period encompasses two major epochs: the Pleistocene, characterized by repeated glacial cycles, and the Holocene, which began around 11,700 years ago and continues to the present day.
