Articles relating to linear earthworks, long banks of earth, sometimes with a ditch alongside. There may also be a palisade along the top of the bank. Linear earthworks may function as defences, as boundary markers to define a territory, to mark out agricultural land, to control movement of people or animals, to levy customs duties or as a combination of some or all of these.
