Preliminary conclusions on the Late Glacial vegetation in south-west Anatolia (Turkey): the complementary nature of palynological and anthracological approaches
Résumé
The combined analysis of charcoal fragments retrieved from epipalaeolithic settlements in Öküzini cave (south-west Anatolia,Turkey) and of pollen in samples retrieved from outside the cave reveals the transformation of the vegetation in the region overthe Late Glacial Period. The analyses provide consistent information on the use of natural resources and evidence as to the protodomestication of cereals in the region.
