Ancient Wicklow Hillfort Reveals Signs of a Lost Proto Town

“In a recent study [(link above), the authors] identified more than 600 suspected house platforms in the Brusselstown Ring hillfort [Ireland], making it the largest nucleated settlement ever discovered in the entirety of prehistoric Britain and Ireland thus far. Subsequent test excavations revealed evidence of Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age occupation as well as a potential water cistern, which may be the very first of its kind in an Irish hillfort…”

Dumpdon Great Camp: An Iron Age hillfort located on a detached hill at the southern end of a steep-sided ridge of Upper Greensand between the River Otter and the Luppitt Brook. The flat topped and triangular shaped #hillfort of 2.6 hectares was defended by two substantial ramparts and ditches on the northern side, controlling the only easy line of approach, and by single ramparts on the east and west sides. 📷 Bladup #HillfortsWednesday #Devon #archaeology #IronAge More:

Checked that the wonky hawthorn tree was still standing on our walk at the hillfort earlier.

It was.

Bjomdalskollen: This #hillfort was constructed on a remote plateau in Telemark, #Norway. It has an inner 30m stone wall along a cliff with large stones at a possible gate, and a fragmented outer wall 80m to the SW. Other features include a bog, a stone structure for projectiles and a ravine with a cairn. It is reachable by a steep ravine path or 2km unmarked hike from the NE and offers superb views and ambience amid nearby barrow cemeteries and rock art. 📷 kenntha88 More:
