I think that there's speculation that it was used as some kind of military boundary during the Anglo-Saxon invasion period. Someone, I can't remember the name, wrote a good deal about it in "Arthur:a military history". I didn't know that there was any kind of limitation about how old sites can be on TMA? I think it's perfectly OK to share interests about places from a variety of periods. I've just been reading Blake & Lloyd's stuff about Offa's dyke, which they say is actually an ancient Roman "wall" of Septimus Severus, taking it back into the kind of time-frame you are in.

Hello Forrester 2,
Yes, there are limitations to the types of sites on TMA. The submission guidelines
http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/submission_guidelines/
say:
"The Modern Antiquarian focuses on megalithic sites and the ancient (i.e. prehistoric) landscape. This means we are not interested in Roman sites, Dark Ages sites, churches etc. unless they have clear prehistoric provenances (and you are prepared to tell us about them)."
There may be some "rogue" sites but we try to eliminate these when they're spotted.
thanks,
TMA Ed.
