fascine

From the French fascine, from the Latin fascīna (“bundle of sticks”).

fascine (plural fascines)

1. (fortification) A cylindrical bundle of small sticks of wood, bound together, used in raising batteries, filling ditches, strengthening ramparts, and making parapets; also in revetments for river banks, and in mats for dams, jetties, etc.
   • 1786, Francis Grose, A Treatise on Ancient Armour and Weapons, page 51.:

     Halberts differ very little from the bill, being like them constructed both for pushing and cutting: a halbert consists of three parts, the spear, or sometimes a kind of sword blade for pushing, an ax, or hatchet for striking and cutting, and a flook or hook for pulling down fascines, in the attack of trenches, or temporary fortifications.
