A mound, a bank, a causeway, an elevated piece of ground separating fields and serving for the passage of travellers etc.; a bridge; a pass; a defile. — It will be seen that in Sunda the meaning is somewhat modified from what it really and originally meant, as the Sundanese attach to this word the idea of a pond or lake, whereas in reality it is only the dam or embankment to form the lake. Situ-banda, Adam's bridge between Ceylon and the continent of India. C. 763, Sétu Bandha, from Sétu, a bridge and Bhanda, binding.
