翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Merlon ： ウィキペディア英語版 Merlon A merlon is the solid upright section of a battlement or crenellated parapet in medieval architecture or fortifications.〔Friar, Stephen (2003). ''The Sutton Companion to Castles'', Sutton Publishing, Stroud, 2003, p. 202. ISBN 978-0-7509-3994-2〕 Merlons are sometimes pierced by narrow, vertical embrasures or slits designed for observation and fire. The space between two merlons is called a crenel, and a succession of merlons and crenels is a crenellation. Crenels designed in later eras, for use by cannons, were called embrasures. ==Etymology== The word comes from the French language, adapted from the Italian ''merlone'', possibly a shortened form of ''mergola'', connected with Latin ''mergae'' (pitchfork), or from a diminutive ''moerulus'', from ''murus'' or ''moerus'' (a wall). An alternative etymology suggests that the medieval Latin ''merulus'' (mentioned from the end of the 10th century) functioned as a diminutive of Latin ''merle'', expressing an image of blackbirds sitting on a wall. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Merlon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
