# Friedrich Albert Fallou

> Friedrich Albert Fallou was a German lawyer who is considered one of the founders of modern soil science. While working as a lawyer and tax assessor, Fallou established himself as an independent scientist and a recognized authority in the natural history of farm and forest soil. In 1862, he proposed that soil was separate in nature from geology and, intent on establishing the study of soils as an independent science, Fallou introduced the term pedology.
