Etymology
[edit]The presentation is fairly universal and obvious as to its Old English origin[8]. Also cognate is Old English ĀM (branding iron)[6]. From the P.I.E. root are the derivatives: Greek AITHŌ (to burn)[7], Latin ÆSTES[7], Old English ĒAST[5] (east), and ĀST[6] (oast, kiln), et cetera. Andrew H.
