mounds (earthworks (engineering works), <single built works by location: topographical>, ... Built Environment (hierarchy name)) |

Note: Piles of earth heaped up for landmarks, monuments, or as bases for other structures; for piles of earth and other debris resulting from successive superimposed occupation sites, use "tells." For piles of earth built over grave sites, use "burial mounds." Use "cairns" for purposely erected piles of stones. |

Arabic ..... أكوام من التراب مكدسة للمعالم والآثار أو كقاعدة لمباني أخرى؛ بالنسبة لأكوام التراب وغيرها من الحطام الناتج عن مواقع الاحتلال المتراكبة المتعاقبة، استخدم "يقول". بالنسبة لأكوام التراب المبنية فوق مواقع المقابر، استخدم "تلال الدفن". استخدم "كيرنز" لأكوام الحجارة المقامة عمدًا. |
Chinese (traditional) ..... 由土所堆成之地標、紀念碑或其他結構物的基底。若是後期居住地堆疊在舊時居住地上方,所形成之土與斷垣殘壁參雜而成的隆起物,則用「台形土墩」一詞。至於堆在墓地上的土丘,則稱之為「塚丘」。「錐形石堆」一詞則用來指刻意築起的石頭堆。 |
Dutch ..... Wordt gebruikt voor heuvels van aarde die zijn opgeworpen als oriëntatiepunten, monumenten of als bases voor andere bouwwerken; gebruik 'tells' voor hopen aarde en ander puin die ontstaan zijn als gevolg van opeenvolgende bewoning. Gebruik 'grafheuvels' voor dergelijke constructies opgeworpen over een graf. |
