| Abstract: | A paleo-spruce (Picea jezoensis) timber dated to (10 040+100) a B.P. was found in the Hunshandak sandy land, Inner Mongolia, which is also one of the oldest
timber found in China. Pollen and mammal fossil further evidence that theropencedrymion dominated by birch and spruce existed
in this area in the late period of the earlier Holocene. This finding has great significance for the analysis of paleoclimate,
paleovegetation and landscape development in this area.
