Middle Bronze Age land use practices such as ploughing, the presence of forest pasture mainly used for pig farming, livestock husbandry on fallow land and the use of fire for various purposes were reconstructed from soil properties, biogeochemical proxies of colluvial deposits and the archaeological record in SW Germany (Hegau).
