About 20,000 years ago. I read it off of Wikipedia. There have been many ice ages over the past 2.4 billion years. The present ice age started about 2.6 million years ago although there have been many warm periods,(interglacials), during that time, we are in one now.

The ice age ended around 8000 BC. This should give you an idea of the time
The last ice age ended 100 000 years ago.
There have been multiple ice ages throughout Earth's history, with each one lasting millions of years. The time between ice ages can vary greatly, from hundreds of millions to billions of years, depending on geological and climatic factors.
The time between ice ages can vary, but on average, they occur approximately every 100,000 years. These cycles of ice ages are driven by variations in Earth's orbit and tilt, which affect the amount of sunlight reaching different parts of the planet.
There have been about 8-10 major ice ages in the past 800,000 years, occurring approximately every 100,000 years. These ice ages are characterized by periods of lower global temperatures and expanding ice sheets.
Glaciers from the last ice age changed the course of this river and many others. Luckily we are currently in between ice ages by thousands of years.
There have been five major ice ages in Earth's history, with the most recent one ending about 11,700 years ago. These ice ages were periods of prolonged cold temperatures and glaciation.
There have been around eight ice ages in the last million years, with each ice age lasting for tens of thousands of years. These ice ages were characterized by the expansion of glaciers and ice sheets over large portions of the Earth's surface, resulting in cooler temperatures and lower sea levels.
The last ice age occurred around 11,000 years ago and lasted for about 100,000 years. It is believed that we are currently in an interglacial period between ice ages.
The time period between ice ages is called an interglacial period.

There have been five major ice ages on Earth, with the most recent one ending about 11,700 years ago. These ice ages were periods when the Earth's climate was significantly cooler and ice sheets covered large portions of the planet.
There have been five major ice ages in Earth's history: the Huronian, Cryogenian, Andean-Saharan, Karoo Ice Age and the Quaternary glaciation. There have been many "little ice ages" in various parts of the world, however, where the climate was unusually cold for several years at a time.
Yes, many times. There were several Ice Ages, with sometimes very warm periods between. The last Ice Age finished just 10.000 years ago. Much of Europe and of North America was covered in ice.
