Etymology

Inherited from Middle French astelier, hastelier, from astelle (“small piece of wood, etc., to hold a broken bone in place, splint”) + -ier (suffix denoting the location of an abode). Astelle is derived from Vulgar Latin *astella, from Latin assula (“chip; shaving; splinter (of wood)”), from assis (a variant of axis (“axletree of a chariot, wagon, etc.; board, plank”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂eḱs- (“axis; axle”)) + -ula (diminutive suffix). The French word is analysable as attelle + -ier.
