Innes, J., Rutherford, M., Ryan, P., Rowley-Conwy, P., & Blackford, J. (2024). Testing the presence of cereal-type pollen grains in coastal pre-Elm Decline peat deposits: Fine-resolution palynology at Roudsea Wood, Cumbria, UK. Holocene, 34(4), 420-437. https://doi.org/10.1177/09596836231219461

By the time of the Mid-Holocene Ulmus pollen decline (UD) ca. 5100 14C 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 th...
