Origin:
The word "compilation" originated in ancient Rome, where it was used to refer to the act of plundering or stealing for the purpose of gathering resources. This sense of the word evolved over time to include the more general meaning of collecting and assembling materials from various sources.
In the 13th century, the word "compilation" was introduced into English from Old French. It was initially used in a legal context to refer to the process of collecting and assembling evidence. However, by the 16th century, the word had come to be more commonly used in its modern sense, referring to the act or process of collecting and putting together written or other materials from various sources.
