A:
The Book of Ruth is identified as a work of fiction set some time in the latter part of the period of the Judges, but at least two generations before the time of Samuel. Nevertheless, Carol Meyers (Kinship and Kingship: The Early Monarchy, published in The Oxford History of the Biblical World) says the Book of Ruth seems to provide evidence about the premonarchic period. Ruth 4:1 mentions the city "gate", which would mean there was a wall. As the Book of Ruth was written long after the period of the Judges, this reference should be treated with caution.
Answer:
Tradition states that the Book of Ruth is an accurate historical, prophetic narrative written by the prophet Samuel 2900 years ago. Most cities were walled at the time.
