A high-resolution multi-proxy record from Lake Van, eastern Anatolia, derived from a lacustrine sequence cored at the 357 m deep Ahlat Ridge (AR), allows a comprehensive view of paleoclimate and environmental history in the continental Near East during the last interglacial (LI). We combined paleovegetation (pollen), stable oxygen isotope (δ18Obulk) and XRF data from the same sedimentary sequence, showing distinct variations during the period from 135 to 110 ka ago leading into and out of full interglacial conditions. The last interglacial plateau, as defined by the presence of thermophilous steppe-forest communities, lasted ca. 13.5 ka, from ~ 129.1–115.6 ka BP.The detailed palynological sequence at Lake Van documents a vegetation succession with several climatic phases: (I) thePistaciazone (ca. 131.2–129.1 ka BP) indicates summer dryness and mild winter conditions during the initial warming, (II) theQuercus-Ulmuszone (ca. 129.1–127.2 ka BP) occurred during warm and humid climate conditions with enhanced evaporation, (III) theCarpinuszone (ca. 127.2–124.1 ka BP) suggest increasingly cooler and wetter conditions, and (IV) the expansion ofPinusat ~ 124.1 ka BP marks the onset of a colder/drier environment that extended into the interval of global ice growth. Pollen data suggest migration of thermophilous trees from refugial areas at the beginning of the last interglacial. Analogous to the current interglacial, the migration documents a time lag between the onset of climatic amelioration and the establishment of an oak steppe-forest, spanning 2.1 ka. Hence, the major difference between the last interglacial compared to the current interglacial (Holocene) is the abundance ofPinusas well as the decrease of deciduous broad-leaved trees, indicating higher continentality during the last interglacial. Finally, our results demonstrate intra-interglacial variability in the low mid-latitudes and suggest a close connection with the high-frequency climate variability recorded in Greenland ice cores.
