Abstract

At Fresnes-sur-Escaut, a partial cross-section of the Schelde's right bank alluviums is marked out, under the holocene silt, peat and calcarous tufa deposits, by a thick sandy bedded deposit with vegetal remains (3 m), of which the higher half is dated from the Lateglacial-Holocene transition or the early Holocene (10040 ± 50 BP). It could be a quick sedimentary accumulation (favored by local factors) m response to the major climatic oscillation pointing out the begining of the Holocene.
