Fascinating - is this the only place where this kind of defensive structure exists, or are their similar templates elsewhere? what a foresighted king, protecting the populace with these defensive villages.

It's the only kind of Norse fortified structure besides defensive walls and palisades.

Really fascinating. I basically know nothing about this period/region but this has intrigued me! The aerial shots showing the “megadoughnut” are spectacular- what a change in perspective can do.

Really glad to hear! Indeed, without the aerial shots it would be much less clear. Many more similar topics to come ;)
