Etymology of TOWLES

The term "towels" is derived from the Old English word "towele", which originally referred to a piece of cloth used for drying or wiping. The Old English word can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "*towalō" or "*twillō", both of which have similar meanings related to cloth. The etymology then traces further back to the Proto-Indo-European root "*tēu-" or "*tēw-" denoting to "swell" or "inflate", suggesting a connection to the concept of absorbing or drying. Over time, the term "towele" evolved into the modern English word "towel" or "towels" as we know it today.
