文摘

Multi-proxy analyses reveal diverse vegetation around 10.7–9.9 ka cal. BP. Cereals were domesticated in wetter conditions than at present in southern Syria. Dynamic equilibrium of plant communities from 10.7 to 10.5 ka cal. BP. RCCs as trigger for the expansion of cold-tolerant and wetland vegetation. Increased anthropogenic impacts and RCCs coincided with decreased arboreal cover.
