Özet: In the studies of restructuring quaternary environmental conditions many sources and methods are referenced for determination of short andlong-term environmental changes. Pollen analysis, which is one of those methods, constitutes an important indirect registration to reveal thechanges and detections of vegetation formations, plant species and species diversity. Pollen analysis are also used as important data sources forthe determination of climatic cycles timing, duration and effects; for the determination of the relationship between natural environment andhuman,; for the distribution, development, reveal of agricultural activities. Therefore, scientists benefit from the pollen records in the researchesof paleo-vegetation, paleo-climate and bioarchaelogy that partaking in paleogeographic studies. In this study, general characteristics of pollenanalysis which are very important and comprehensive and its contributions to Quaternary studies are discussed.
