Etîmolojî (Îngilîzî)

Ultimately from Latin Vulcanus (“god of fire”). Attested as a mythological term in German since the 11th c. The modern sense since the 16th c. from an internationalism, whose precise development is uncertain; the earliest attestations of appellative use are found in Arabic بُرْكان (burkān, 13th c.), Old Spanish vulcan (13th c.), and Middle French vulcan (14th c.).
