N2 - A 115cm long sediment core retrieved from the exposed uplands of Mauritius, a small oceanic island in the Indian Ocean, shows environmental change from the uninhabited era into post-colonization times. Well-preserved fossil pollen and diatoms in the uppermost 30cm of the core reflect environmental conditions during the last 1000years. Granulometric analysis along the core shows that the sediments below 30cm consist of weathered material and that the record may contain hiatuses. This is also illustrated by a
