Offham Hill

Offham Hill is a causewayed enclosure near Lewes, East Sussex, England, dating to approximately 3700–3300 BC [1]. The site was identified as a possible causewayed enclosure in 1964 by a member of the Sussex Archaeological Society, and the Ordnance Survey recommended excavation in 1972 [1]. Peter Drewett conducted the excavation in 1976 [1]. The ditches are characterized by interruptions or gaps known as causeways [1]. The purpose of causewayed enclosures remains unknown; they may have functioned as settlements, meeting places, or ritual sites [1].
