    Resumé

    Two pollen diagrams from two small hollows in Eldrup Forest, East Jutland show the Holocene vegetational development on high ground. Four vegetational phases, Betula-forest, Corylus-Pinus-Populus-Betula-forest, Tilia-Quercus-forest and Fagus-forest, are distinguished . There were noticeable human influences on the forest in Subboreal and early Subatlantic time. Similar features occur in regional pollen diagrams from eastern Denmark, which record both high-ground and low-ground vegetation. Ulmus, Fraxinus and Alnus occurred mainly on the low ground. Leaf-foddering was widespread in the early Subboreal and an agricultural expansion lasted from the middle Subboreal (2000 BC) until the middle Subatlantic (A D 500). Cultivation intensity was low or moderate AD 500-1600, where a new expansion occurred.
