Roman, Greek and ClassicalRemarkably preserved in a dune, the thermal baths of Hogolo were discovered in 1892; several excavation campaigns were carried out in the twentieth century. The monument dates from the 1st century. Enlarged in the second century, it was transformed into an agricultural dwelling in the third century and then demolished in the fourth century.

Iron Age and Later PrehistoryThe striking remains of this fort lie for the most part in a walled plantation on the summit of Rink Hill at a height of 195m (640ft). The earliest work on the site appears to have been an oval fort or settlement measuring some 150m (500ft) by 91m (300ft) within a single rampart, which is now represented only by a ploughed-out fragment lying west of the plantation wall.

Rock ArtIn Baunei, within the Ogliastra region (Sardinia), there exists a petroglyph unique to the entire area. This carving, etched into a limestone surface, is set into the cliff face overlooking the town, sheltered by an overhanging rock formation. There are no definitive findings regarding its exact age, the most significant excavations were conducted in 2005 by archaeologist M.A. Fadda. The site is currently closed, but a further research campaign, followed by work to secure the area and make it accessible to the public is due to begin soon. Image submitted by ciatology

Iron Age and Later PrehistoryIn the summer of 1864 workmen digging a water reservoir on the highest ground in the town of Novocherkassk cut into a barrow. What they found was a Sarmatian burial almost two thousand years old, and one of the richest ever recovered on the lower Don river. Image submitted by Anne T

Neolithic and Bronze AgeLocated in central Ukraine. Alongside ordinary houses the settlement was laid out with what the excavators call 'mega-structures', better understood as 'assembly houses', set out to a definite plan. Recent survey work has found that Maidanetske was not made up of one site, but made up of several, constructed at different periods. Image submitted by Anne T

Neolithic and Bronze AgeThis so-called stone circle lies overlooking the bluestone outcrop of Carn Meini in Pembrokeshire. It is actually oval or horse-shoe shaped, leading to speculation that it may have influenced the horseshoe shape of the Bluestones at Stonehenge. Image submitted by TheCaptain

Iron Age and Later PrehistoryThis hillfort is located on a forest covered rocky hill with a great view over Glomma river to the south and west. From a small road there is a footpath up to the hillfort and top of the hill. An old information poster is located at the entrance of the fort. The path is very overgrown and hard to follow.

Multi-periodA possible Neolithic enclosure represented by linear arrangements of boulders and stones which incorporate one of the principle granite tors on the summit area of Carn Galver. Excavations in 2009 by Andy Jones (RIP) of Cornwall Archaeological Unit revealed a substantial tumbled wall probably of orthostatic construction but lacking dating evidence. Excavation of a terrace in the centre of the enclosure also produced no dating evidence. Image submitted by Bladup

Multi-periodA very disturbed Bronze Age cairn (we hope therapy is available). More interestingly it sits at the centre point in the route along the ridgeway that takes in all the historic sites in the Llanfair Mountain collection.

Multi-periodWelcome new contributor Don Remo (and canine friend): The Menhir of the Motto del Risc (re-erected very recently) is the thirteenth stop on the Malcantone Mining Park Trail. There is also much evidence of the presence of the (Celtic adjacent) Ligurians in these hills. Image submitted by DonRemo

Modern SitesOK, so this doesn't show the Stonehenge replica within the grounds of this coffee shop, but they also have these incredible Moai as their name suggests, and more in their garden. You'll have to go to our page to see the "Stonehenge", which is pretty impressive too (what a tease) Image submitted by Creative Commons
