The History of the Hill-Forts

British folk with Roman materials arrived on the site, bringing with them what they could. The community grew at Cadbury as people gave up trying to hold on to their old life and came into the hill-fort as refugees. There's even the odd bit of evidence of objects that came all the way from Byzantium brought through the Mediterranean and up the Atlantic coast. They probably came seeking the commodity known as the British metal, tin.
