We present the results of palynologycal analyses carried out both in a core obtained from a deposit
located in Sierra de Guadarrama (Madrid), and modern pollen data from one transect across Tolla
Collado de El Berrueco-El Berrueco. The comparison between these data sets shows that the pollen
spectra faithfully reflect the current taxa in the study area. In addition, these results have permitted to
distinguish several phases of the vegetation dynamic and human activity from the Late Holocene in El
Berrueco area, inferred from the development of anthropozoogenic taxa
