Description (en)
The palynological investigation carried out at the site of Molino San Vincenzo (Tuscany, central Italy) in 2015 was useful to collect information about the palaeoenvironment of the site. The environment of Roman Molino San Vincenzo was greatly influenced by human presence and activities; pasturelands and crop fields (mainly barley and wheat cultivations) characterised the agrarian system while no evidence of cultivation of woody plants were found. Wet habitats like rivers or ponds were present near the site and the open landscape hosted some wild vegetation mainly consisting of Mediterranean macchia with fragments of mixed oak woods quite far from the site.
