Point of Hellia : ウィキペディア英語版 | Point of Hellia
The Point of Hellia is a headland on the northwest coast of the Orkney Mainland,〔United Kingdom Ordnance Survey Map Landranger Map, Orkney Mainland, 1:50,000 scale, 2002〕 Scotland. This landform extends into the southern part of Eynhallow Sound, a seaway of the North Sea. Gurness, an Iron Age broch promontory fort, is situated on the Point of Hellia. According to Hogan, the drystone construction of the "round tower fort is flanked by a number of ancillary structures and impressive concentric ditch and rampart outer defences; moreover, the rocky shoreline cliffs posed a formidable approach for marine invaders."〔C.Michael Hogan, ''Gurness'', The Megalithic Portal, ed. Andy Burnham, 2 December 2007 ()〕 ==References==
