N2 - A Subfossil reindeer track was localised in a drilled core from the Late GlacialSlotseng lacustrine basin, located in the south eastern part of Jylland near the town of Jels. Itwas dated to 11,795 ±80 14C yr BP or around 13,780 cal yr BP. During an earlier excavationof the site four skeletons of reindeer were recovered from the early Bølling succession datedto 14.200 cal yr BP. The Slotseng lacustrine basin is a kettle hole basin and almost circularwith a diameter of 23 m. The over all transgressive late Glacial and regressive Holocene lakesediment succession covers the time period from 16,000 to around 8,000 cal yr BP years. Thebasin sedimentation starts with old melt water deposits just below the Bølling Interstadial (GI1-e), followed by older Dryas (GI 1-d), Allerød, (GI 1-c, 1-b, 1-a) and Younger Dryas (GS 1)which terminates the Late Glacial succession. Preboreal algal gyttja and near shore woodypeat from the Boreal and onset of the Atlantic Time, cover the basin. Hitherto, no convincingtracks have been recognized and described from drill cores. The reindeer track from theSlotseng Basin is the first convincing track recognized from a drill core section.89
