Bron-y-Gaer Camp is a prehistoric hillfort located in Carmarthenshire, Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under Cadw reference CM148. The site dates to the Iron Age and comprises a substantial defensive enclosure constructed on elevated terrain, typical of fortified settlement sites characteristic of the period in South Wales. The camp's earthworks include banks and ditches arranged to create a formidable perimeter defence, reflecting the strategic importance of controlling the surrounding landscape during the Iron Age. Such hillforts served as focal points for local communities, providing refuge, administrative centres, and evidence of territorial organisation during the pre-Roman Iron Age.
