I know about finding microcharcoal in sediment, but I'm wondering if anyone has been able to use stalagmites to find microcharcoal and correlate the age of that deposit to fire regimes.
You can find a list of bibliographical references presenting cases of soot (and/or micro-charcoals) trapped into concretions in this paper : https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quaint.2017.10.031
I hope this will be helpful :-)
