“…Our understanding of the evolution of Holocene paleoenvironments in the Mediterranean region is linked to geoarchaeological studies. The relationship between aggradation/incision phases in coastal plains and fluvial valleys with environmental changes and human actions is present in most of the literature (Ackermann et al, 2014;Ballais, 1985;Bellin et al, 2013;Bintliff, 1992Bintliff, , 2002Brückner, 1986;Butzer, 1980Butzer, , 2005Constante et al, 2011;Fuchs, 2007;Jordà and Vaudour, 1980;Peña Monné, 2018;Peña Monné et al, 2004;Pope and Van Andel, 1984;Zielhofer et al, 2008, among others). The simple scheme of two aggradation phases proposed by Vita-Finzi (1969), with only the second phase (younger fill) being Holocene, does not fit with the complex Holocene evolution in the Mediterranean region.…”
