Knowledge of the late-Cenozoic glacial history of Antarctica increased rapidly over the last ten years. In this paper we compile published data into figures in an attempt to present a provisional analysis of Cenozoic glacial history on a continent-wide scale. The main purpose is to identify the variety of opinions and areas where more data are needed. We approach this task through the development of figures that visually correlate glacial and marine events from a diverse set of data.
