Vallum is either the whole or a portion of the fortifications of a Roman camp. The vallum usually comprised an earthen or turf rampart (Agger) with a wooden palisade on top, with a deep outer ditch (fossa). The name is derived from vallus (a stake)...

Latin vallus derives from Proto-Indo-European *walso-, " a post".Vallus is the source of English wall.
