Chieftain's Keep

A wise warlord keeps his strongest men about him at all times.

As barbarian society developed the need for larger settlements was greater, in order to house their ever-larger populations. This gave rise to an increase in the number of fortified settlements built on areas with natural defences such as hilltops, cliffs or river banks. Stone or wooden defences were then added, setting them apart from smaller settlements. Some historians argue that the addition of fortifications was not a defensive decision but was, in fact, a matter of tribal prestige. As such, a tribe could have more than one fortified settlement and their sizes varied significantly. Julius Caesar, in his study of the Gauls, named their versions 'oppidum', noting that the differing sizes appeared to indicate the power structure within each tribe.
