Record Type: concept
earthworks (engineering works) (<single built works by location: topographical>, <single built works by location or context>, ... Built Environment (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Formations made of earth, resulting from the grading, trenching, or embanking of earth for utilitarian or cermonial purposes. Examples include Medieval fortifications and ancient ceremonial sites in Britain and Europe. For earth constructions having more of an artistic, rather than functional, purpose, use "earthworks (sculpture)." For works considered architecture rather than engineering works, prefer "earthen architecture."

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 一般指為了實用目的,而在地面上進行築平、挖溝或築堤之後所呈現的結果。若為較具藝術性,而非功能性用途的土工結構物,則用「地景作品 (雕塑品)」一詞。 
Dutch ..... Bouwconstructies die in hoofdzaak bestaan uit aarde en die al naar gelang hun functies versterkt of aangevuld zijn met andere materialen. Gebruik ´land art´als de aarden constructies een meer artistiek dan functioneel doel hebben. 
Spanish ..... Designa generalmente el resultado de clasificar, abrir zanjas o terraplenar la tierra con propósitos utilitarios. Cuando la construcción de tierra tiene más un objetivo artístico que funcional, use "earthwork (escultura)”.
