From glacier combined with the suffix -ist denoting a person who practices or believes in something. Named those who championed glacier theory in the 19th century.
The first glacialists were literally laughed at—imagine trying to convince people that massive glaciers carved valleys in Scotland and Scandinavia, moving rocks hundreds of miles away!
