Tartalmi kivonat: | The charophyte remains play an important role in the reconstruction of the hydrological characteristics (pH, water depth, stream flow, carbonate content, isotope geochemistry-water chemistry and temperature) of the former lake habitats. This is of particular importance in environmental historical studies, since the possibilities for obtaining aquatic food resources and the techniques and tools used are fundamentally influenced by these hydrological conditions. Our gyrogonite samples were recovered from the Holocene sequence of the thermalspring fed Lake Peţea NW Romania. The presence of the recovered Chara cf. hispida Linnaeus, 1753 gyrogonites marks the emergence of an oligotrophic shallow water lake system characterized by high dissolved Ca and Mg content and relatively poor plant cover in the Early Holocene. The results of previous malacological and ostracod studies also indicate the development of a shallow water lake with a muddy substrate and water temperatures above 18°C. As a warm-water lake, the local micro-environment was also home to many exploitable tree species. The charophyte remains that we recovered were from the Mesolithic level of the lake, so we were able to provide information on the hydrology of the lake for this period. Unfortunately, there have been no detailed archaeological investigations in the area to date revealing any potentially Mesolithic remains. Thus, no information is currently available on actual human occupation from the period in question. |
