In contrast to Continental Europe, where the Iron Age is abundantly represented by funerary remains as well as by hillforts and major centers, the British Iron Age is mainly represented by its settlement sites, and especially by houses of circular groundplan, in marked contrast to the Central and Northern European tradition of rectangular houses. In lowland Britain the evidence for timber roundhouses comprises the footprint of postholes or foundation trenches; in the Atlantic north and west, the remains of monumental stonebuilt houses survive as upstanding ruins, testimony to the building skills of Iron Age engineers and masons.D. W. Harding's fully illustrated study explores not just the architectural aspects of roundhouses, but more importantly their role in the social, economic and ritual structure of their communities, and their significance as symbols of Iron Age society in the face of Romanization.
