I haven't seen the programme but I gather it is being theorised that the top of the hill may have been removed, maybe a thousand years ago.
Does anyone know what evidence is being offered for this? Finding artefacts of that period doesn't prove much, does it?
No it doesn't, in fact recent finds of just two arrowheads and evidence of a large post hole from the Anglo-Saxon/Norman period are hardly indications that there was any serious alteration of the summit or any extended period of occupation there; wouldn't rule it out completely however, but the theory needs backing up with a lot more archaeological evidence.
