Vegetation History in the Toledo Mountains (Central Iberia): Human Impact during the Last 1300 Years

Mid-mountain ecosystems provide a broad diversity of resources, heterogeneous relief, and a mild climate, which are all very useful for human necessities. These features enable different strategies such as the terracing of the slopes as well as wide crop diversification. Their relations lead to a pa...
