How do firemen know the cause of a fire after everything has burnt down?

Often times you hear about the cause of a fire being a cigarette for example. However, isn’t the cigarette already long gone after the house/forrest/etc. has burnt down? How is it still possible find out what started the fire?

Religion and the Bible.

Naw I’m kidding it’s science like everything else. There are patterns after every burn and chemists/scientists who test samples from various places, and can find chemical signatures of arson (gasoline or lighter fluid, even matches) … it’s a whole science itself.
