Holocene vegetation history at Wet Sleddale, Cumbria, UK, including fine-resolution pollen and non-pollen palynomorph analyses at and about the Elm Decline
The vegetation history of Cumbria, in north-west England, has been intensively studied for many years by pollen analysis, particularly in the upland area of the Lake District but also the lowlands of the river Eden valley to the east and the coastal lowlands to the south and north. However, the Shap Fells, an eastern outlier of the upland massif, has so far not been the subject of palynological research despite it being an archaeologically rich a…
Latitude as a Factor Influencing Variability in Vegetational Development in Northeast England During the First (Preboreal) Holocene Millennium
In the North Atlantic region, the transition from the very cold Lateglacial Stadial (GS-1) to the temperate Holocene was abrupt, with a rapid increase in temperature of several degrees, after which the low-stature, cold-tolerant Stadial vegetation was replaced through the immigration and rapid succession of tall herb, heath, and shrub communities towards Betula woodland of varying density. In northeast England, pollen diagrams on a south to north…
Testing the presence of cereal-type pollen grains in coastal pre-Elm Decline peat deposits
By the time of the Mid-Holocene Ulmus pollen decline (UD) ca. 5100 14 C bp (ca. 5900 cal. BP), the Neolithic was becoming well established in Britain and Ireland. The importance of cereal cultivation as part of the initial neolithization process in the British Isles is uncertain, as archaeological sites of the first Neolithic remain elusive. Palaeoecologists have recorded cereal-type pollen grains in peat deposits that pre-date the UD significant…
Early to Mid-Holocene Tree Immigration and Spread in the Isle of Man
The Isle of Man is a large island which lies in the middle of the northern Irish Sea between Britain and Ireland and, because of its insularity and size, has an impoverished flora compared with the two main islands. This has been the case throughout the postglacial and warrants the island’s description as a separate phytogeographic province. We have considered Holocene tree pollen data from seventeen sites on the island which together preserve a …
Lateglacial to Mid-Holocene Vegetation History in the Eastern Vale of Pickering, Northeast Yorkshire, UK
Palaeolake Flixton, in the eastern Vale of Pickering in northeast Yorkshire, UK, existed as open water during the Lateglacial and early to mid-Holocene, until hydroseral succession and gradual terrestrialisation changed it to an area of fen and basin peatland by the later mid-Holocene. The environs of the lake were occupied by Late Palaeolithic and Mesolithic people over thousands of years and many Early Mesolithic sites, in particular, have been…
Bronze Age and Later Vegetation History on the Limestone Tabular Hills of North-East Yorkshire, UK
This paper presents the results of palynological investigations on the limestone Tabular Hills of the North York Moors in north-east England. These limestone areas have the highest concentration of post-Mesolithic archaeological sites in this upland region, but because of the geology and paucity of suitable organic deposits they have had almost no palynological research with which to assess the land-use history of these cultures, nor their impact…
A Detailed Record of Deglacial and Early Post-Glacial Fluvial Evolution
The lower reaches of the River Ure, on the flanks of the Pennine Hills in northern England, contain sedimentary and erosional landforms that are a record of fluvial activity during deglaciation and valley-glacier retreat at the end of the last (Devensian) glacial period, and in the subsequent post-glacial Holocene. Terraces and channels, most of which are now relict features well above the altitude of the present river, attest to the impacts of m…
History of Mid- and Late Holocene Palaeofloods in the Yangtze Coastal Lowlands, East China
The surface of the lowland deltaic plain around Taihu (Lake Tai), south of the Yangtze river mouth in eastern China, lies near sea level and until recent drainage and development by human societies was mostly covered by wetlands of various types. It was created by regular overbank flooding, mainly from the Yangtze, and the deposition of mostly mineral sediments over the several millennia since sea level regained its current altitude in the early …
Multi-profile fine-resolution palynology of Late Mesolithic to Bronze Age peat at Cat Stones, Rishworth Moor, Central Pennines, UK
Palynological data from three radiocarbon dated peat profiles at Rishworth Moor in the Pennine hills of northern England provide a record of vegetation change and human impacts in the Late Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age periods. All three cultures have archaeological sites present in the vicinity, with Late Mesolithic sites by far the most abundant, comprising mainly very late assemblages dominated by ‘rod’-shaped microliths. Pollen evidenc…
What was the ecological impact of a Trypillia megasite occupation? Multi-proxy palaeo-environmental investigations at Nebelivka, Ukraine
Fine-resolution sampling of pollen, non-pollen palynomorphs and microcharcoal as well as sedimentological data in a 6-m sediment core were used to reconstruct both natural conditions and human impacts in the late fifth and early fourth millennia cal bc in the environs of the Nebelivka megasite in Kirovograd Oblast, Central Ukraine. This 238-ha site, dating to the Middle (or BII) Phase of the Trypillia culture, represents one of the first low-dens…

Late Glacial to Holocene relative sea-level change in Assynt, northwest Scotland, UK
Relative sea-level change (RSL), from the Late Glacial through to the late Holocene, is reconstructed for the Assynt region, northwest Scotland, based on bio- and lithostratigraphical analysis. Four new radiocarbon-dated sea-level index points help constrain RSL change for the Late Glacial to the late Holocene. These new data, in addition to published material, capture the RSL fall during the Late Glacial and the rise and fall associated with the…
Multi-profile fine-resolution palynological and micro-charcoal analyses at Esklets, North York Moors, UK, with special reference to the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition
Once a Sacred and Secluded Place
Two round barrows were excavated in 1982–3 at Church Lawton near to the eastern edge of the Cheshire and Staffordshire Plain. One of the barrows was defined by a ring of nine glacial boulders and it is possible that these monoliths initially formed a free-standing stone circle. The remains constitute a rare example of the use of stone to enhance a Bronze Age barrow in the lowlands of central western England. Beneath the mound demarcated by the bo…
The Age of the Late Mesolithic on the North York Moors, England
There has been a considerable amount of pollen-analytical research on the palaeoecology and palaeoenvironment of the Late Mesolithic culture of the North York Moors upland in north-east Yorkshire, which together with the Pennines is the most prolific area in Britain for Late Mesolithic flint sites. The peat sediments of the Moors have provided detailed data on the vegetation history of the mid-Holocene, both natural developments and also woodland…
Mid-Holocene coastal hydrology and salinity changes in the east Taihu area of the lower Yangtze wetlands, China
During the mid-Holocene the eastern Taihu area, on China's Yangtze delta plain, was populated by advanced late Neolithic cultures supported by intensive domesticated rice cultivation. This agricultural system collapsed around 4200 cal yr BP, with severe population decline, the end of the Liangzhu culture, and about half a millennium of very low-scale human activity in the area before the re-establishment of agricultural production. Microfossil an…
Mesolithic Environments at Star Carr, the Eastern Vale of Pickering and Environs
Star Carr in the eastern Vale of Pickering is an emblematic site for the British Early Mesolithic and for the development of wetland archaeology, being one of the first studies where scientific techniques of environmental reconstruction were integrated within an archaeological research strategy, allowing detailed understanding of site conditions and the environmental context of human activities. Pollen diagrams from Star Carr and around palaeo-La…

The conclusions prese…
Palaeoecological and archaeological evidence for Bronze Age human activity on the Isle of Man
Pollen analytical data and the archaeological record for the Isle of Man identify increased human impact on the landscape during the Bronze Age. Pollen profiles from seven sites are presented, all identifying a greater scale of activity than existed during the preceding Neolithic. The archaeological record shows similar increases in both the number and the distribution of finds. Both the archaeology and palaeoecology indicate an increase in human…
The Ecology of Late Mesolithic Woodland Disturbances
Holocene sea-level change and coastal evolution in the Humber estuary, eastern England
New stratigraphic data collected from six sites in the Humber estuary establish a record of Holocene relative sea-level (RSL) change, and enable testing of four possible causes of rapid coastal change: sea-level rise, changes in sedimentation, storm-surge history, and human impact. Mean high water of spring tides (MHWST) in the Humber rose from c. 9 m OD at 7500 cal. yrs BP to 0 m OD by 4000 cal. yrs BP, at an average long-term rate of c. 3.9 mm …
