词源：
mound(n.)1550s, “hedge, fence,” also “an embankment, a dam” (a sense probably influenced by mount (n.)), a word of obscure origin. The relationship between the noun and the verb is uncertain.
Commonly supposed to be from Middle English mounde “the hand; guardianship, power,” from Old English mund (cognate with Latin manus), but this is not certain (OED discounts it on grounds of sense). Perhaps it is a confusion of the native word and Middle Dutch mond “protection,” used in military sense for fortifications of various types, including earthworks.
From 1726 as “artificial elevation of earth” (as over a grave); 1810 as “natural low elevation.” As the place where the pitcher stands on a baseball field, from 1912. Mound-builder “one of the prehistoric race of the Mississippi Valley that erected extensive earthworks” is by 1838.
In Middle English mounde also meant “the world,” from Old French monde, from Latin mundus (see mundane).also from 1550s
下面是词源的翻译（机器翻译比较难翻，参考着看）
土墩（n。）1550年代，“树篱，篱笆”，也“路堤，大坝”（一种可能受山（n。）影响的感觉），这是一个晦涩的起源。名词与动词之间的关系尚不确定。通常应该来自中英语的“手；监护权，权力”，来自古老的英语Mund（与拉丁语同源），但这是不确定的（OED是基于理性的）。也许这是本地单词和中间荷兰语“保护”的混乱，在军事意义上用于包括土方工程在内的各种防御工事。从1726年开始，作为“地球的人造抬高”（如坟墓上）； 1810年为“自然低海拔”。从1912年开始，投手站在棒球场上的地方。“密西西比山谷的史前种族之一，竖立了广泛的土方工程”，到1838年。
