"hammock" is a native American word meaning "shady place".

Wekiva Springs State Park in Florida has a natural artesian spring (one of many) close to where I live. It has a very long nature trail for walking, jogging or riding bicycles through the hammocks:

... but hammock can also refer to a kind of "swing" or "sling," usually made of knotted or netted rope or cloth, which is strung between two trees to take advantage of the cool shade. It is a nice place to take a nap on a hot, summer day.
