      A flint arrowhead from Carn Brea, Cornwall; over 700 flint arrowheads were found clustered around the main entrance to the enclosure, offering potential evidence for the site having been attacked: https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/environment-and-planning/strategic-historic-environment-service/cornwall-and-scilly-historic-environment-record/access-to-monuments/find-by-name/find-monuments-by-name/a-e/carn-brea/ …pic.twitter.com/ikrDnKt6sX

      A coin of Micipsa, King of Numidia 148–118 BC, has also been found at Carn Brea and is arguably a genuine pre-Roman import of the later 2nd century BC, see http://www.caitlingreen.org/2015/06/the-distribution-of-numidian-coins.html …pic.twitter.com/JtNgaMQnIL

          The two structures now visible on top of Carn Brea are rather more recent in date; one is Carn Brea Castle, which was first mentioned in 1478 and was partly rebuilt and extended in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries: https://www.flickr.com/photos/hamishfenton/10176873836 … & http://www.heritagegateway.org.uk/Gateway/Results_Single.aspx?uid=MCO127&resourceID=1020 …

          The other structure is the 27m high Basset Monument, erected for Francis Lord de Dunstanville and Basset of Tehidy in 1836–7; it stands on the highest point of the hill, within the enclosed area of the prehistoric hillfort (pic=https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Carn_Brea_Monument_by_Ansom.jpg …)pic.twitter.com/pbXqdN3ZLP

          A view through the probably Iron Age east entrance to Trencrom hillfort, with Carn Brea visible through it on the horizon; in-between the two is the Hayle Estuary and the small Iron Age hillfort of Carnsew.pic.twitter.com/3s4FPQkBp2
