<”Stratigraphically precise AMS-radiocarbon-dated
plant remains, pollen, charcoal, and microtephra
analyses from the Faroe Islands were used to esta-
blish the timing and effects of the first human settle-
ment. The first occurences of cultivated crops dated
from as early as the sixth century A.D. and was
older than implied from previous archaeological and
historical studies, but consistent with earlier palae-
oecological investigations. The effects of settlement
on the vegetation were rapid and widespread. The
transformation of the flora of this fragile ecosys-
tem was best expressed by the large assemblage of
ruderal, postsettlement plants recorded as macrofos-
sils. The earliest known introduction of domestic
animals (sheep/goat) was ca. A.D. 700.” Quoted
