The European mediaeval climate was marked by important continental-scale changes in temperature and moisture availability, with a direct impact on human communities. The drastic changes in climate conditions during the Mediaeval Climatic Optimum to the Little Ice Age and the associated transition between the two have been extensively investigated in western Europe and depicted in historical records through literature or art; however, little information is available for Eastern Europe. The present study focuses on a Mediaeval archaeological site in NE Romania (Târgu Neamț – La Damian) from the XIVth century to assess the changes associated with the transition between the two major events. We analysed biomarkers from the sedimentary record coupled with previously published charcoal and archaeobotanical remains. Our data indicate a fluctuating temperature with a regional pattern for this time interval, marked by two slightly colder episodes (as low as 7 °C) and two important warmings (up to ~11.3 °C), three degrees more than the present-day average of 8.2 °C. The warming episodes were associated with changes in moisture and vegetation, with the greatest impact on cultivated plants (i.e. cereals and beans), indicating that climatic conditions impacted the community and food availability in the region. |
