Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The large hillfort at Hembury, near Honiton (Devon), occupied in the Neolithic and Iron Age, was taken over by a Roman force about or shortly before AD 50. Substantial timber buildings were constructed, including a probable fabrica, in which iron from the adjacent Blackdown hills was worked. The Roman site was abandoned by the early Flavian period and not reoccupied. Though not evidently a conventional fort, Hembury joins a list of hillforts in southwest England which were used by the Roman army in the early decades of conquest. These include Hod Hill and possibly Maiden Castle (Dorset), Ham Hill and South Cadbury (Somerset). Includes | ||||||||||
