A Viereckschanze (from German "four-corner-rampart"; plural -en) is a rectangular ditched enclosure that was constructed during the Iron Age in parts of Celtic Western Europe. They are widespread in Germany, parts of northern France[1][2] and also in some regions of the Iberian Peninsula, most notably in Portugal.[3]
