# dung, manure

## Definition:

The term "dung" refers to human or animal solid waste, and is also called feces or excrement. When used as fertilizer for enriching the soil, it is called "manure."

* These terms can also be used figuratively to refer to something that is worthless or not important.
* Dried animal dung is often used for fuel.
* The expression "like dung on the ground" could be translated as "be scattered like worthless dung over the land."
* The "Dung Gate" in the South Wall of Jerusalem was probably the gate where garbage and trash were taken out of the city.
