Abstract

Small mammal remains from five karst-type localities situated in the Southern and Middle Timan region are presented. Three different faunal assemblages from three succeeding phases are recognized. A cryohydrophilous faunal assemblage with desman (Desmana moschata) and predominantly Siberian lemming (Lemmus sibiricus) existed during the Bolling-Allerod interstadials. During the end of Younger Dryas, the fauna changed to cryoxerophilous communities with a predominance of collared lemming (Dicrostonyx sp.) and narrow-skulled vole (Microtus gregalis). The forest fauna is typical for the Late Holocene. Until the Early Holocene, the Middle Timan region was a refugium of Dicrostonyx populations characterized by archaic molar morphology.
