Best Answer

The area behind the levee is characteristically poorly drained for the obvious reason that water can not flow up the levee and into the river. Marshes called backswamps result. A tributary stream can not enter the river because levees block the way. Often it has to flow parallel to the river until it can breach the levee, These are called yazoo tributaries.
