Overview

History & significance

Tullochanknowe Villa is a prehistoric mound situated in Perthshire, Scotland, designated as a scheduled monument. The earthwork represents a significant archaeological feature of the region's early settlement patterns, though detailed scholarly documentation of its specific construction date and cultural attribution remains limited in published archaeological records. As with many such mounds in Perthshire, it likely relates to Bronze Age or Iron Age occupation, periods when burial mounds and settlement features were prominent in the Scottish landscape. The monument's survival as an upstanding earthwork makes it valuable for understanding the distribution and character of prehistoric settlement in central Scotland.
