WORKSHOP: LIVING ON THE ANCIENT HILLTOPS

September 8 → 3:30 pm4:30 pm

Town Hall, Kirkwall

Today’s settlement pattern in Slovenia is an old one going back to the 4th-6th centuries AD – living on hilltop sites. In early days they were either naturally defended or built up as forts; later many became the sites of churches we can see today. But further back in Roman times, settlement was on lower ground. Archaeologist Dr Tina Milavec of the University of Ljubljana shows images from various sites and explores possible explanations. She goes on to ask about the Orkney situation, and for any similarities or contrasts. Numbers limited to 30, booking essential.
