語源は樽と同じ。語源は、1588年にパリで起きたユグノー派の暴動で、土砂や砂利を詰めた樽を道路の真ん中に大量に積み上げ、幹線道路を封鎖したことによる。この方法を考案した人物は定かではない。

barricade

barricade: [17] 12 May 1588 was known as la journée des barricades ‘the day of the barricades’, because in the course of disturbances in Paris during the Huguenot wars, large barrels (French barriques) filled with earth, cobblestones, etc were hauled into the street on that day to form barricades – and the term has stuck ever since. Barrique itself was borrowed from Spanish barrica ‘cask’, which was formed from the same stem as that from which English gets barrel [14]. It has been speculated that this was Vulgar Latin *barra ‘bar’, on the basis that barrels are made of ‘bars’ or ‘staves’.
