Experimental programmes such as the one begun in 2014 in the Mas del Pepet pen (Rojals, Tarragona) has permitted an understanding, among other matters, of fold characteristics according to the type of livestock, the seasonality of occupations and herd management. This study also contributes to the identification of taphonomic processes that have taken place and to determine the representativeness of the botanical content in the deposit, in relation to the environment and pasture areas. Finally, the dung burning experiments conducted have provided data that will help to reveal the way manure was treated in prehistoric fold caves. 1040-6182 http://hdl.handle.net/10259/4592 10.1016/j.quaint.2016.01.032 Experimental archaeology Prehistory Pastoralism Fumier Dung burning Grottes-bergeries The Mas del Pepet experimental programme for the study of prehistoric livestock practices: Preliminary data from dung burning
