John,
This would be awesome information to have in OSM, but as it is historic information, sometimes with no obvious above ground visualisation, is it definitely appropriate for the project? (Personally I hope it is, but wanted to see what the consensus is).
There are existing sites such as http://www.themodernantiquarian.com and http://www.megalithic.co.uk/ which contain a lot of information on such things but as far as I know they lack a map feature - seems to me that OSM would be perfect if it's deemed appropriate by the community
There is a list of the people involved here: http://www.arch.ox.ac.uk/hillforts-atlas-team.html anyone on here already know any of them already?
Best,
Adam
