The word "intercept" originated in Roman military terminology. In ancient Rome, the "interceptores" were cavalrymen who were used to ambush enemy messengers and seize important dispatches. The term was eventually adopted into English in the 16th century, initially with a military meaning, but later applied to other contexts as well.
