Abstract
⺠Deglaciation to the present extent of local ice cap completed by 11,730 cal yr BP. ⺠Relic plant remains indicate former restricted extent of ice caps in East Greenland. ⺠Ice cap extents were smaller than present until about AD 1025. ⺠Local independent Greenland glaciers reached Holocene maximum by AD 1150. ⺠The Greenland ice sheet may mirror the Holocene growth and decay of local ice caps.
