Data on hadronic particle production in symmetric nuclear collisions from SIS/BEVALAC to SPS energies are reviewed. The main emphasis is put on the production of pions, kaons, and antibaryons. Global features will be discussed in terms of rapidity and transverse momentum distributions and the total energy stored in produced particles. Pion and kaon production probabilities are studied as function of beam energy and their distribution in polar and azimuthal angle. Special emphasis is put on medium effects expected for kaons in dense nuclear matter at low energies. An enhanced strange particle yield is found at all energies, its explanation at SPS energies is still controversial. Experimental data on antibaryon and multistrange hyperon production is less complete and does not allow for similar systematic studies.
