Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Draws on analytical field surveys, and aerial photography and reconnaissance of hillforts within the Northumberland National Park. It is suggested that these new field surveys demonstrate that the analysis of ephemeral earthworks can lead to fundamental advances in the understanding of individual sites. Further rapid field observations of other hillforts, on both sides of the border, confirm that some of the observations may have wider validity. Suggests that the most important conclusions are: that evidence for multiple phases of construction can often be detected through field survey; and that many sites underwent profound changes when they were re-occupied, apparently after a lengthy hiatus in the Late Iron Age or Roman Iron Age. In addition both the field and aerial surveys have identified many previously unrecorded remains in the environs of the hillforts. | ||
