In order to defend their lands from outside invaders, the Celts established powerful fortified sites. This work examines these forts, which varied considerably from the mysterious brochs and duns found in northern Britain, to the hill-top forts ranging in size, to the promontory forts that formed powerful coastal strongholds.
