cashel (forte ad anello)
Explanation:
'Cashel (Caiseal) and Cathair (Caher): Circular stone-walled enclosures of drystone construction -- the stone-walled equivalent of a rath. Usually found in rocky country with suitable stone for wall building, such as western Ireland, and rarely have a fosse or ditch . The term “cashel” is commonly used in the northwest while “cathair” is used in the west and southwest.'
(http://www.megalithicireland.com/Glossary.html)

"I Forti ad anello sono fortificazioni a forma circolare molto usati durante l'Età del ferro (800 a.C.–400 a.C.), sebbene alcuni possono essere stati costruiti più tardi verso l'Alto Medioevo (circa nell'anno ~1000). Sono stati ritrovati in Nord Europa, specialmente in Irlanda. Nelle fonti in lingua irlandese queste strutture hanno diversi nomi: ráth (anglicizzato rath), lios (anglicizzato lis), caiseal (anglicizzato cashel), cathair (anglicizzato caher o cahir) e dún (anglicizzato dun or doon)"

Figurati, Daniele.
Lo trovi anche tradotto come forte circolare, anche se le occorrenze sembrano meno numerose.

Asker: In italiano si trova Cashel solo come località, è questo il caso del link Wiki che hai allegato. Comunque mi pare buona la tuo proposta. Grazie
