What are hill forts? Who built them and why? What was life in a hill fort like? Hill forts are walled places that were built during Prehistoric times. These walled places, or enclosures, were built on high ground and had high walls, fences and ditches built around them. Archaeologists believe that there were once many thousands of hill forts in existence while today there are 3,000 of them remaining. They are a fascinating reminder of our Bronze and Iron Age ancestors and give us clues about how they lived and their early building methods. In this book you can find out about why people built hill forts, how they built them, why they chose particular building sites and much more. You can also read in-depth profiles of the most well-known hill forts in the UK, such as Maiden Castle, Danebury and Mither Tap.

Widely regarded as major visible field monuments of the Iron Age, hillforts are central to an understanding of later prehistoric communities in Britain and Europe from the later Bronze Age. With such a range of variants represented, no single explanation of their function or social significance could satisfy all possible interpretations of their role. While they are conventionally viewed as defence settlements or regional centres controlled by a social elite, this role has been challenged in recent years, and instead hillforts are being considered primarily as expressions of social identity with strong ritual and cosmological associations. Current hillfort interpretations are in danger of reflecting contemporary social sensitivities more strongly than any recognizable Iron Age priorities, and the need for critical analysis of basic archaeological evidence is paramount. Critically reviewing the evidence of hillforts in Britain, in the wider context of Ireland and continental Europe, the volume focuses on their structural features, chronology, landscape context, and their social, economic and symbolic functions, and is well illustrated throughout with site plans, reconstruction drawings, and photographs. Harding reviews the changing perceptions of hillforts and the future prospects for hillfort research, highlighting aspects of contemporary investigation and interpretation.

Oxbow says: This study re-evaluates many of the misconceptions about the war-crazed Iron Age warrior hero, and questions anew the role of hillforts as truly, or primarily, defensive structures. Taking a regional approach to Middle Iron Age warfare, Finney examines hillforts and weaponry from lowland Britain.
