Largely, yes, but how did Loehle 2008 manage to miss the Roman Warm Period?
This is from ljungquist-temp-reconstruction-2000-years.pdf:

The highest decadal average temperatures in the reconstruction are encountered in the mid to late tenth century and the lowest towards the end of the seventeenth century. Although the highest reconstructed temperatures occurred during the Medieval Warm Period and in the twentieth century, the second century, during the Roman Warm Period, is the warmest century during the last two millennia according to our reconstruction. .. Our reconstruction is the first large-scale multi-proxy synthesis that shows that mean temperatures of the Roman Warm Period were higher than, or as high as, mean twentieth-century temperatures.

The major unsolved climate mysteries still remain:
- Where did the Romans and the denizens of the tenth century get all that CO2 from?
- Why did the Vikings stop all emissions which subsequently caused the Little Ice Age?
