http://dbpedia.org/resource/Burnswark_Hill an entity of type: Thing

O Cerco de Burnswark foi uma batalha para garantir o controle de um forte elevado travada entre os defensores caledonianos da tribo dos e as legiões romanas que participavam da campanha de Quinto Lólio Úrbico durante a conquista das Terras Baixas escocesas. O cerco ocorreu na moderna Burnswark, no sul da Escócia, perto de Lockerbie, e resultou em vitória romana. rdf:langString
Burnswark Hill, to the east of the A74(M) between Ecclefechan and Lockerbie in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, sits prominently in the landscape. Its rich history has been a consistent source of archaeological interpretation for generations. The most recent active archaeological research, undertaken by the Trimontium Trust, has furthered the understanding of the site narrative in respect of the apparent relationship between the local population and occupying Roman forces. In fiction, Burnswark Hill features in "The Antonine Romans and Burnswark Hill' (2021) Novella by Andrew Boyce. rdf:langString
Burnswark Hill es un promontorio ubicado entre Ecclefechan y Lockerbie, localidades de la región escocesa de Dumfries and Galloway.​ Representa una evidencia geológica sucinta y prominente de la interrupción de la deposición de sedimentos por erupción de lava seguida por flujos de basalto. Esta actividad geológica del período Carbonífero​ aseguraría que unos 300 millones de años después, la ubicación proporcionara un sitio ideal para el posicionamiento estratégico de un castro de la Edad del Hierro, que ocupa alrededor de 7 hectáreas. rdf:langString

rdf:langString Burnswark Hill, to the east of the A74(M) between Ecclefechan and Lockerbie in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, sits prominently in the landscape. Its rich history has been a consistent source of archaeological interpretation for generations. The most recent active archaeological research, undertaken by the Trimontium Trust, has furthered the understanding of the site narrative in respect of the apparent relationship between the local population and occupying Roman forces. Burnswark Hill (also known as Birrenswark) represents succinct and prominent geological evidence of the interruption of sediment deposition by lava eruption followed by basalt flows. This geological activity from the Carboniferous period ensured that 300 million years later, the location would provide an ideal site for the strategic positioning of an Iron Age hillfort, one that in this instance measures an enclosed area of approximately 7ha. The Iron Age hillfort, clearly observable in the landscape, is accompanied by evidence of an earlier Bronze Age burial cairn, Roman camps and potential fortlet, enclosures dated to the medieval period, a possible Civil War battery, and an Ordnance Survey triangulation station. The site is commanding and impressive, its history complex and intriguing. In fiction, Burnswark Hill features in "The Antonine Romans and Burnswark Hill' (2021) Novella by Andrew Boyce.

El castro de la Edad del Hierro, claramente observable en el paisaje, está acompañado por evidencia de un mojón de entierro anterior de la Edad del Bronce, campamentos romanos y un potencial fortín, recintos que datan del período medieval. La zona fue escenario del llamado asedio de Burnswark, durante la conquista romana de Britania. Alberga así mismo una posible batería de la revolución inglesa y una estación de triangulación de la Ordnance Survey.​​
