The term palisade does not refer to the structure of a longhouse, but to a fence surrounding some native villages. It is from Latin palus, meaning a stake or fence.
Generally these fences were intended to keep enemies away from the houses within a village and were not planted tightly against each other, leaving gaps between each stake. They could be sharpened at the top and were often very tall to prevent anyone climbing over.
