Abstract
Kineto-stratigraphic studies through a cliff section on the island of Sejero, Denmark revealed the presence of 3 till beds (interbedded with stratified meltwater deposits) related to the Main-, the East-Jutland- and the Belt Sea advances, respectively. Below the tills there is a stratified deposit of clayey sand and silt with an admixture of organic material. The pollen in the organic part contains high percentages of Cyperaceae and Gramineae; radiocarbon dates of 36,900 .+-. 460 B.P. and 36,710 .+-. 460 B.P. from the deposit suggest a correlation with the Hengelo Interstadial in the Netherlands.Keywords
