Four profiles were sampled from three mires situated near the town of Světlá nad Sázvou in the western forland of the Bohemian-Moravian Uplands. The sites were studied pollen analytically. In one of the profiles macroscopic analyses were also carried out. The aim of the analyses performed was to provide data for reconstructing the vegetational evolution in the area under study. A survey of vegetation changes from the Late Glacial (Alleröd) up to the present was obtained. Special attention was devoted to the composition of original forest stands and to their changes due to the impact of man. The results were compared with the conclusions of the geobotanical reconstruction mapping, of forest-type mapping, of the biogeographical mapping, and of archives of forest records.
