Ramparts, or defensive walls, were often built around settlements or cities in ancient times. Their primary purpose was to act as an impenetrable barrier for attackers. From the top of ramparts, or from specially made 'arrow slit' windows, defenders could fire upon any intruders in relative safety. However, ramparts also were used often in daily life as a means of getting around a castle, town, or other settlement, and were sometimes utilized as storage spaces.
It was a way of getting work done for oneself without having to pay (apart form theinitialbuying of a slave).
Actually ramparts means 'fortification'...so I assume: "...we watched were so gallantly streaming" means our troops/ships/planes...gallantly streaming in droves to defend us If I may give my definition? "Ramparts" in the song, refer to a building of defense, with a vertical wall that extends past the roof, to hide behind. ....so: ... "O'er the ramparts we watched were so "gallantly streaming" Means from the ramparts they saw the American flag, through the flashes of light from the bombs, still silently waving. Ramparts is referring to "Mounds of Dirt" in the Star Spangled Banner................
