Abstract:
A paper considering the role of natural processes in creating forest clearings and the inadvertent impact of human activity on forest processes including regeneration. Also deals with the apparent discrepancy between pollen diagram evidence and archaeological data when considering the impact of the Neolithic on forest processes, the importance of `ecological opportunism' in deciding a settlement site, and the role of fire.
