Popis: |
A pollen sequence resulting from a palynological analysis of sedimentary cave deposits at the Atapuerca archaeological sites (Burgos, Spain) is described. The attribution of the sequence to the upper middle Pleistocene is based on the fauna remains discovered and absolute dating of the stalagmitic crust covering the deposits. A variation in the vegetation during the period covered by the pollen record is detected. The essential forest components of the vegetation are deciduous and evergreen Quercus together with a variable mosaic of accompanying species which indicate climates with a more temperate character in some cases and more Mediterranean in others. A hypothesis of chronological and climatic correlation is established for each of the pollen zones on the basis of vegetation fluctuations highlighted by the palynological analysis. |
