One of the goals is to create a global data set of anthropogenic land use through the Holocene in order to improve the currently-available scenarios of land-use change that are used as inputs for climate and carbon-cycle model experiments. The European land-use group met in Hemmenhofen on the shores of Lake Constance last week (28-30<sup>th<\/sup> January), hosted by Dr Elena Marinova (who has been a long term collaborator of the SPECIAL group), to discuss progress in putting together these data for Europe. Hemmenhofen was a particularly appropriate venue for the meeting because the Institute there specialises in excavations and analyses of the pile-dwelling settlements around Lake Constance. We didn\u2019t actually get to go to the Museum (see photo) \u2013 instead we focused on mapping the presence of agriculture across Europe at 6000 cal yr BP. There was much discussion about what people were eating \u2013 and I am delighted to say that hazelnuts and wild strawberries appeared to be a favourite on the menu, just pointing to the fact that early farmers still made a lot of use of natural woodland resources.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-368\" src=\"https:\/\/research.reading.ac.uk\/palaeoclimate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/Unorganized\/LandCover-300x160.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"160\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LandCover 6k is an international initiative sponsored by the Past Global Changes (PAGES) project (http:\/\/pastglobalchanges.org\/landcover6k).
