Up until the last century, the region was dominated by extensive heathlands, which often covered more than half the village area. Only those on the marginal heathlands remain and these are destroyed in the heathland reclamations of the 19th century. The witches' meeting places were to be found on heathland and the hares which were associated with -witches also lived there. Before the heathland reclamations, the village areas consisted of small, closed villages with around them the fields (essen), the communal grazing lands and the forests. Additional sets of samples were taken from forestry plantations on former heathland sites, where these species were known to occur. In the 19th century, there was another radical transformation of the landscape with the wholesale reclamation of the heathlands. Due to the soil disturbance during tree planting, the afforested sites could not be classified into the three heathland vegetation types. I had pursued intensively for a few years, also pointed to the heathlands not being an exclusively natural phenomena. Gnomes inhabited the sand-hills in the heathland area, as, occasionally, did the devil. Late medieval/early modern gallows were also sometimes placed on the heathlands and near urnfields. Effects of burning on heathland soil chemical properties: an experimental study on the effect of heating and ash deposits. In 1900 the area consisted predominantly of broadleaved woodland, heathland and parkland. In addition, five afforested former heathland sites were sampled. Hybrid plants occurred in both the vegetation samples taken and the seed banks at 12 of the 13 heathland sites used in this study. These examples are from corpora and from sources on the web.
