Lake Pomacochas is located in the eastern Andes, its water drains into the Amazon Basin and is under the influence of South American Monsoon System (SMSA). This region has been inhabited since pre-Hispanic times by various human groups such as the Chachapoyas (~1150 – 480 BP). The palynological study of Pomacochas lake´s sediments describes the floristic composition of this study area between ~1003 - 383 BP, a period that includes part of the Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA) and the first half of the Little Ice Age (LIA). The palynoflora recorded in the 30 samples analyzed is associated with swampy areas, grasslands and crops, shrubs and meadow, pre-forest, and forest. In addition, an analysis of elemental composition of the lake sediments was conducted, suggesting that Pomacochas was characterized by a dry environment during the MCA, with a single intense rainfall event, heterogeneous flora, presence of grasslands and a lower lake level; whereas, the first half of the LIA, the environment was humid, with a homogeneous flora, a predominance of forests, and a higher lake level. The ecological legacy of the Chachapoyas includes Alnus, which is associated with pre-forest; in addition, maize cultivation developed around Lake Pomacochas between ~1003 - 499 BP, with periods of absence (~940 - 878 BP, ~603 BP and ~565 - 515 BP). Finally, the index obtained from the relative abundances of Poaceae and Alnus, and the Ti:Al are related to other isotopic records from the eastern Peruvian Andes, suggesting that the lake sediments keep information of changes in monsoon activity within the period of the study.
