A snake rail fence (also known as a zigzag fence) is so named because of their meandering construction. This split rail fence is the iconic type built in the United States during the American Civil War. They are simple to construct, can be assembled with few tools, and are particularly popular in very rocky areas where post hole digging is almost impossible. The abundance of easily accessible building material, i.e. wood, throughout the heavily forested eastern United States made the fence ubiquitous in the more settled regions.
