The water under a drawbridge is typically called a moat. Moats were historically used as a defensive measure to protect castles or fortresses by creating a barrier of water around them to make it harder for enemies to invade. Today, drawbridges are primarily used for aesthetic purposes or to regulate access to certain areas.
