This timeline of Sheffield history summarises key events in the history of Sheffield, a city in England. The origins of the city can be traced back to the founding of a settlement in a clearing beside the River Sheaf in the second half of the 1st millennium AD. The area had seen human occupation since at least the last ice age, but significant growth in the settlements that are now incorporated into the city did not occur until the industrial revolution. Early historyMesolithic: Maglemosians are known to have occupied the Deepcar area of Sheffield.[1][2] Late Neolithic or Bronze Age period: Evidence of occupation can be found in Ecclesall Woods where early inhabitants carved a 'cup and ring' stone.[3] Iron Age: Brigantes constructed forts at Wincobank and Carl Wark, and the Roman Rig dyke.[4] c70: A Roman fort was constructed at Templeborough.[5] 1st or 2nd century: Romans built a rural estate centre, or ‘villa’ on what is believed to be a pre-existing Brigantian farmstead at Whirlow Hall Farm. Roman auxiliaries of the Sunuci tribe were granted land in the Stannington area of Sheffield in A.D. 124. Other evidence of Roman occupation near to Stannington comes from finds on Walkley Bank Road. 9th century: The Sheffield area was part of the Danelaw. Evidence of Viking occupation comes from the roots of place names in and around Sheffield such as Lescar, Carbrook, Carsick Hill, Hooks Carr Sick, the Hurkling stone, Grimesthorpe, Upperthorpe, Netherthorpe and many more.[6][7][8][9][10] Early 9th century: The Sheffield Cross, an Anglo-Saxon cross was carved.
