The name for a Roman fortification ditch is a "fossa." These ditches were often part of a defensive system surrounding military camps or fortifications, serving to impede enemy advances and enhance the overall defense of the site. They were typically deep and wide, sometimes complemented by a rampart or wall on the inner side.
Fortification is a defensive structure, like a castle or fort. It may have extra high and thick walls to keep out the enemy. It may also have weapons built in to these walls as well. The Alamo is a good example of a fortification, so are the castles built back in the times of medieval knights.
