I've had some slight trouble researching non-European fortifications, though granted, I've only recently begun and undoubtedly, there are a large number of sources on the subject. Off the tops of your heads though, are there any of you familiar with such structures?
Forts, strongholds, non-European/Islamic castles-- I want to avoid the traditional western castle and already I've begun to consider Roman and Greek fortifications. Going beyond that, however, I'm at a bit of a loss. Are there any unique fortifications in other regions of the world and if so, how effective and permanent were they? Any input is appreciated.
