Documented examples indicate the occurrence of four interglacials younger than the Sanian 2 (= Elsterian 2, Okanian) Glaciation in the Pleistocene in Europe. These are, from the oldest, the Mazovian (= Holsteinian), Zbójnian (= Reinsdorf), Lubavian (= Schoningen?) and Eemian interglacials. These interglacials are characterised by different vegetation successions, and occasionally marine deposits resulting from the global sea level rise are present in the region surrounding the English Channel, North Sea and Baltic Sea. Paleosol horizons within loess sections in the Ukraine also correspond to these interglacials.
