Bogdalsberget hillfort in Saltvik on Åland is a much more convincing piece of 1st Millennium fortification. This is what its drystone rampart looks like after 1500 years of no upkeep. Still more than one Chinawoman high. ❤️

The hillfort we regularly walk at is 'under new management'.
This year the usual grazing access doesn't seem to have been granted to the farmer that used to have sheep up here for a few weeks by now, so the bluebells are far more numerous, and the grass is getting longer than it did before.
Perhaps, like my own wild areas of garden, there will be interesting new arrivals now they've been given the time to develop instead of being nibbled.

“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…”

Here is my latest video. Created with many thanks to Cathy McIver, the project manager at Stroanfreggan Dig. Also thanks to AOC Archaeology Group, who Cathy works for, and Carsphairn Heritage Initiative.
Thanks to Jo at the CatStrand too for putting me in touch with Cathy.
The dig was funded by Historic Environment Scotland and Carsphairn Renewable Energy Fund.#SCOTLAND #galloway

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:
