Phaedrus is described as having hair the colour of hot copper. On reflection ( too late to change before the fest goes live), I should not have put roundhouses on the lower slopes of the hill - it is more likely (based on a further reread and also the 6th century hillfort) that the Dun occupied the top half of the hill. I tried to place the direction for the doorways towards the dawning sun, though this was pretty much guesswork. I couldn't find any information on 2nd century use of the site, so I drew wooden pallisades instead. The hillfort was in its heyday from the 6th century, when it had 4 lines of stone fortifications. The image of Dun Monaidh is referenced from the wiki page, of the modern day Dunadd Hillfort: and influenced from watching many episodes of Time Team (a little knowledge being a dangerous thing!).
