Etymology

edit

Probably from Proto-Italic *stiglos (which stimulus and stiva may also be related to), from Proto-Indo-European *(s)teyg- (to be sharp; to sting) +‎ *-lós. In this case, related to instīgō (to urge, stimulate, stir up), Ancient Greek σしぐまτたうῐ́ζぜーたωおめが (stízō, to mark with a pointed instrument), Ancient Greek σしぐまτたうῐ́γがんまμみゅー (stígma, mark, spot), Proto-Germanic *stikaną (to stick, stab).[1] An alternative derivation relates the word to Avestan 𐬯𐬙𐬀𐬉𐬭𐬀 (staēra, mountaintop).[2]

Not related to Ancient Greek σしぐまτたうῦλος (stûlos, pillar; wooden pole).
