Remains of archaeology.
In Shakespeare’s great tragedy Macbeth “high Dunsinane hill” is Macbeth’s castle or stronghold. But in fact there are at least two separate forts at Dunsinane: a massively defended citadel on the summit of the hill and a larger fort, enclosing the lower terraces of the hill. The larger fort is probably an Iron Age (1000BC-500AD) construction with a settlement of round houses. The inner fort was constructed later, probably on the site of the earlier fortification. Nobody knows for certain whether Dunsinane hill fort actually was Macbeth’s castle, but occupation of the hill-fort probably continued into the early medieval period. Antiquarians carried out major excavations within the citadel during 1799 and 1854. These unscientific ‘digs’ produced conflicting and confusing records, and greatly disturbed the site. The result of their endeavours is this scatter of undulating mounds, where once the concentric rings of the ancient fortification had been.
