Origin:
The term "mottle" is thought to have originated from the observation that fabrics often faded or became discolored over time, resulting in a variegated pattern of spots or blotches. This discoloration could be caused by the effects of sunlight, washing, or other factors.
Over time, the term "mottle" came to be used more generally to describe any kind of variegated pattern of spots or blotches, regardless of its cause. It can be used to describe the coloration of animals, plants, landscapes, or even human skin.
