Well for a start you have clearly said that measurements for these periods have no validity ?
Nope. That is not what I said. I said that paleo data because of the time spans involved don't show the fineness to assess any variations over small time spans.
I even cited Marcott's temperature reconstruction, he used 300 year smoothing over a 2000 year time span. Now i'll let you imagine what smoothing would be used over a 500,000 year time span. You do understand smoothing means you lose data?

Fact is that temperature in both these periods were high or low for known reasons that didn't relate to CO2 in the atmosphere.
No there are theories as to why they happened.

Nobody has ever said that CO2 is the only possible reason for high temperature and this argument is dependant on that clearly false assumption.
You mean like the recent paper that said all of the warming since 1950 was anthropogenic?

"Study: humans have caused all the global warming since 1950 "
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97-per-cent/2016/apr/1...reported in the garudian so it must be true.

The medieval warm period was caused by increased solar radiation.
Theory AKA supposition

Little Ice age was caused by reduced sunspot activity coupled with an increase in active volcano eruptions.
Theory aka supposition.
Sunspot activity was low for over 300 years?
The volcano activity one is really strange. It is posited on a 50 year volcanic episode of four eruptions. We know from recent large volcanic eruptions that the effects last possibly as long as four years. It leaves a long time span that is not covered.
