Re: Vitrified forts - How and why?

Thankyou for the summary my computer gets very slow after a short while online. I just did a quick search on craig phadrig,near inverness(where the pictish king brude used to hangout) anyway one site said it was constructed using timber-laced granite then burnt causing extensive vitrification. I assume that means bits of wood between the rocks in the walls so i would imagine that would create a fairly big heat. So that is a possible how. The why?? apart from the emense strengh I'm not sure(although it does get very draughty up those hills, but it's a bit of a complex draught excluder!)
