Another nice source of information about this fascinating archaeological site is the official website of the Must Farm Project. In particular, I have found their "about" page to be quite interesting: https://www.mustfarm.com/bronze-age-settlement/about/ https://www.mustfarm.com/bronze-age-settlement/about/
This page contains, among several things, pictures and plans of the excavation area, sketches of metalwork, photos of various artefacts, etc. Quoting from their page:
> Alternatively, the presence of weapons, such as swords and spears, and shields during the Late Bronze Age suggests that conflict was an aspect of society at this time. Swords and spears were found at Must Farm, the settlement was built in a defensible location over water with a palisade of sharpened stakes surrounding it. Could it be that the settlement was burnt down in an act of aggression? However, a lack of human remains from the site suggests none of its occupants died during the fire, could they have been driven away?
> Ultimately, despite the incredible preservation at Must Farm, the cause of the site’s destruction is likely to remain elusive.
