During periods such as the Minoan, the melting patterns were often geographically isolated, particularly in the northern hemisphere.
Sorry, but that is simply not true. There are strong Minoan, Roman, and Medieval warm period signals in the Vostok ice cores collected near the south pole. Trying to minimize past warming periods is nothing more and nothing less than propaganda issued by the hockey time. There are literally dozens of peer reviewed studies that demonstrate that the above warming periods were both warmer than the present and global in nature. Feel free to name a continent and I will provide you with peer reviewed sudies.

I'd be very interested on seeing anything which suggests that South American or New Zealand glaciers were in retreat during the Minoan Period.
