Winklebury Camp (Hampshire)

Iron Age and Later PrehistoryThe impressive banks of this hillfort survive in deepest Basingstoke. It has a single rampart (which has been developed right up to) and a ditch enclosing almost 6 hectares (15 acres). The site has suffered a lot of development in recent times: it is surrounded by a housing estate and in 1977 a school was built within the ramparts. Excavations discovered two Iron Age phases; firstly from the 6th to 5th century, and secondly from the 2nd to 1st centuries BC.

Castellum of Aardenburg

MuseumsThe village of Aardenburg (Zeeland) was part of the Roman Empire from at least 27BCE until 289CE. This part of western Europe was the home of the Menapii, a Celtic tribe, until the Romans came. The Romans and Celts mingled. But in 170CE there were invasions from Germany and the Roman soldiers built a Castellum on the high sand ridge, with the name Rodanum.

Koppelberg Dolmen

Neolithic and Bronze AgeSeveral destroyed dolmens stood on the Koppelberg, a promontory overlooking a lake NE of Berlin. They were used as sources of stone in the 19th Century. However there are many loose stones by the wayside that may have once been part of the dolmens. There are also many cup marks in the area, check the nearby sites list and map on our page.

Selino Pyramid

Selino Pyramid

Neolithic and Bronze AgeThis is one of the most obscure prehistoric sites and hard to get to. It is a Minoan tomb on Crete, but carved entirely out of rock. The name 'Pyramid' is a misnomer - the structure is a fairly perfect cone.
