Bodrifty
Bodrifty is the modern name of an Iron Age village, now in ruins, in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is 700 yards west of Mulfra Hill in Penwith District, 3 miles northwest of Penzance and 1.5 miles southwest of Porthmeor, on the high ground of the watershed between the Atlantic and the English Channel. Today the settlement is barely more than a farm within the boundary of the village of New Mill, just north of Boskednan. ==History== Professor Tim Darvill dates Bodrifty as far back as the seventh century BC, but James Dyer has claimed that Bodrifty began as an open settlement in the fourth century BC. During the Iron Age, Bodrifty was inhabited by peasants who lived in round huts and cultivated small fields in the area. The settlement thrived between the fifth and second centuries BC, and Pytheas, the Greek geographer and explorer, is said to have visited Bodrifty on his travels in the 320s BC.
