Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Historical evidence for a fort at Dundurn in the late 7th century AD is supported by excavation and radiocarbon analysis. Waterlogged deposits preserved environmental evidence and structural timberwork including timber-laced defences and a wattle floor. Finds include E-ware pottery and imported glass, a glass boss, a zoomorphic bronze dangle, a stick-pin mould and a complete leather shoe with stamped decoration. Nuclear forts are discussed as a widespread class of Early Historic stronghold. AR | |||||||||
