Dyke is a term used to refer to an artificial waterway or embankment, typically built for flood control or irrigation. It is composed of a DITCH, DAM, and LEVEE. A DITCH is a long, narrow trench dug into the ground, usually to carry water away from an area. A DAM is a barrier constructed across a river or other body of water, designed to hold back water and raise its level. A LEVEE is an embankment built along the banks of a river or other body of water, designed to prevent flooding. Together, these three elements form a dyke, which is used to protect land from flooding and provide irrigation.
