    Description: While archaeological records indicate an intensive Mesolithic occupation of dune areas situated along river valleys, relatively little knowledge exists about environmental interactions in the form of land-use strategies and their possible local impacts. The combination of geoarchaeological, chronological, geochemical and palaeoecological research methods and their application both on a Mesoltihic site situated on top of a dune and the adjacent palaeochannel sediments allows for a detailed reconstruction of the local environmental development around the Soven site in the Jeetzel valley (Northern Germany) since ~10.5 ka cal BP. Based on the results, we identified four phases that may be related to local human impact twice during the Mesolithic, the Neolithic and the Iron Ages and are discussed on the backdrop of the regional settlement history. Although nearby Mesolithic occupation is evident on archaeological grounds, the identification of synchronous impacts on the vegetation in the local environmental records remains tentative even in respect of the broad methodical spectrum applied. Vice versa, human impact is strongly indicated by palaeoecological and geochemical proxies during the Neolithic period, but cannot be connected to archaeological records in the area so far. A younger phase of human impact – probably consisting of seasonal livestock farming in the wetlands – is ascribed to the Iron Age economy and comprises local soil erosion, raised concentrations of phosphates and urease, and the facilitation of grazing related taxa.

    Description: Es wird immer schwieriger, vergleichende Studien über die zahlreichen Pollendiagramme eines Interglazials innerhalb Nordwesteuropas oder aber verschiedener Interglaziale dieses Raumes zu machen, und zwar wegen der Mannigfaltigkeit der Zonierungssysteme, die die einzelnen Autoren anwenden. Dennoch haben aber Iversen (1958) und Andersen (1966) gezeigt, daß in jedem der bisher untersuchten Interglaziale ähnliche Zyklen der Vegetationsentwicklung und der Bodenbildung abgelaufen sind. Die Verfasser legen dar, daß in jeder Interglazialzeit 4 Perioden der Vegetationsentwicklung festgestellt werden können und daß diese als natürliche biostratigraphische Zonen angesehen werden können, basierend auf dem Charakter der Pollengemeinschaften. Diese Perioden sind: Zone I, die Pre-temperate Zone, Betula und Pinus dominieren; Zone II, die Early-temperate Zone, Vorherrschaft der Bäume des Eichenmischwaldes; Zone III, die Late-temperate Zone, in zunehmendem Maße beherrscht durch spät einwandernde wärmeliebende Bäume, wie Carpinus und Abies; Zone IV, die Post-temperate Zone, wiederum beherrscht durch boreale Bäume, wie Pinus und Betula. Diese Zonierung kann für fast alle interglazialen Pollendiagramme Nordwesteuropas verwandt werden. Geringe Veränderungen der Vegetation, und zwar regional, lokal oder seral, können als Unterzonen beschrieben werden, ohne die Hauptzüge und den Zweck dieses Zonierungssystems zu stören.
