pretty common practice.. British Isles..

The arrival of farming Early farmers arrived in these areas about 3,900 years ago (although humans were present much earlier, and their impact is unknown). These farmers had grazing animals - cattle, goats and primitive sheep. In areas they burned the heath and resinous pinewoods to encourage fresh growth of heather for their stock. The combination of burning and grazing forced woodland into further retreat as well as preventing it recolonising bare areas. It is impossible to know for sure the exact effect these farmers had, but their activities profoundly altered the ecosystem. It is likely that they would have been attracted to the more open woodlands for grazing their animals, accelerating the cycle of overgrazing and deforestation.
