- •
We examine lake sediments from five lakes in Byers Peninsula (Antarctica).
- •
The dating of the basal sediments is indicative of the age of deglaciation.
- •
The chronological framework has been established with 14C, TL and tephrochronology.
- •
Deglaciation started in the western part (< 8.3 cal. ky BP) and continued eastwards.
- •
The central and east became ice-free during the Mid and Late Holocene, respectively.
