Etymology

Borrowed from Byzantine Greek μανδίλιον (mandílion), μαντίλιον (mantílion), or μανδήλη (mandḗlē, “cloth, hand towel, handkerchief, tablecloth”), from Latin mantēlium, mantēle (“cloth, hand towel, handkerchief, tablecloth”). Also vocalized hyper-classically مِنْدِيل (mindīl) at odds with origin, usage, and descendants.
