Origin:
The word "kist" has its roots in the Ancient Greek word "kistē," which referred to a wicker basket or chest used to store various items. The term was subsequently adopted into Latin as "cista" and eventually into Old Norse as "kista."
Over time, the meaning of "kist" evolved from a basket or chest to a more general term for any container with a lid. In modern usage, "kist" is often used to refer to a small, wooden chest or box used for storing valuables, documents, or other personal belongings.
While the word "kist" is most commonly associated with Scandinavia, it has also been adopted into other languages, such as:
