Archaeological and multiproxy studies on the land use-history of the Southern Black-Forest

100多年来，人们一直在研究山区的利用和定居。在这里以及在中部山区，科学方法，特别是花粉分析，在过去的30年里得到了应用。在许多地区，中世纪在山脉中部定居的旧模式受到质疑或反驳，黑森林也被视为长期不利于定居的景观，因此是一个较晚开发的地区。在北方和中部黑森林进行的新研究证明了铁器时代或至少在修道院时代之前的土地使用。在该项目中，将采用考古学和自然科学相结合的方法，在三种不同的景观（黑森林高地、霍岑瓦尔德西部、丁克尔贝格东部）中调查人类对南部黑森林景观的影响以及新石器时代以来的资源利用策略。系统的调查，激光雷达扫描分析，sondage挖掘和基于GIS的分析，结合花粉和地球化学分析湖泊沉积物档案可以提供一个一致的图片南部黑森林的发展和利用。在这方面，应提及砍伐森林、因人为使用而改变森林、农业、畜牧业经济和人为火灾等问题，因此，本项目的研究是近年来考古学和自然科学研究的后续，重点是中山脉。然而，由于比较了不同的地文亚单位，并包括了高山地区，拟议的工作远远超出了研究范围。考虑到E。G.来自不同海拔湖泊的沉积物档案将有助于确定土地利用沿着海拔梯度的质量和数量梯度。

For more than 100 years research on the use and settlement of montane regions has been carried out. Here as well as in mid-range mountains scientific methods, especially pollen-analysis have been applied within the last 30 years. In many areas the old paradigm of a settlement of mid-range mountains in medieval times has been questioned or refuted.The Black-Forest too was seen for a long time as a landscape adverse to settlement and therefore a late developed region. New research carried out in the Northern and Middle Black-Forest has proved a land-use in the iron-age or at least in pre-monastery times. In this project the human impact on the landscape of the Southern Black-Forest and the strategies of resource-use since the Neolithic are to be investigated using combined methods of archaeology and natural sciences in three different landscapes (High Black-Forest, western Hotzenwald, eastern Dinkelberg). Systematic surveys, LIDAR-scan-analysis, sondage excavations and GIS-based analysis together with combined pollen and geochemical analyses in lake sediment archives can provide a consistent picture of the development and use of the Southern Black-Forest. Hints on deforestation, change of forests through anthropogenic use, agriculture, pastoral economy and anthropogenic fires are to be mentioned in this context.Thus, research in this project follows the recent years' studies in archaeology and natural science focusing on mid-range mountains. However, due to the fact that different physiographic subunits are compared and the high-montane region is included the proposed work goes far beyond that research. Taking into account e. g. sediment archives from lakes at different altitudes will enable to identify qualitative and quantitative gradients of land-use along an altitudinal gradient.
