A rabbit burrow or a tunnel dug underground, especially one used in ancient military sieges.
Latin word possibly from Iberian languages, originally referring to rabbit burrows but adopted by Roman military strategists to describe siege tunnels dug under fortifications.
The Romans were so fond of this word that they weaponized rabbit behavior—their military engineers literally copied bunny tunneling to undermine enemy walls!
