The aim was achieved by the analysis of fossil (fossil pollen findings ~ between the years 1179-1945 AD) and modern pollen. Pollen analysis results were made into a diagram by the Tilia program. In addition, modern plant samples were collected, temperature and humidity recording were recorded. According to the results of fossil pollen analysis, woody¡¯s (Arboreal Polen; AP) varied between 75.3% (AD 1251) and 36.7% (AD 1526). According to the results of modern pollen obtained from Tauber pollen trap, AP rate is 46.7% while NAP (Herbaceous, Nonarboreal Pollen) rate is 53.3%. According to the results of surface sediment analysis, AP rate is 57.5% and NAP rate is 42.5%. According to findings obtained from the pollen analyzes, the influence of the Little Ice Age influenced the development and change of the vegetation structure in the research area in a limited manner. However, according to the pollen findings between the collapse of the Seljuk State and the establishment of the Ottoman State in Anatolia, cereal farming has been interrupted by 200 years. Climatic irregularities in the Little Ice Age, battles and Celali revolts have hindered agricultural activities. Depending on these factors, the disturbed order in the provinces led to a break in the pollen diagram for more than 200 years between 1600 and 1808 in cereal farming %K Fosil Polen %K G¨¹ncel Polen %K Mucur Obruk G£¿l¨¹ %K Paleovejetasyon %U http://dergipark.org.tr/tcd/issue/36324/342955
