Etymology

The term 'bondmaid' originated in Middle English, combining 'bond' (meaning bound or tied) and 'maid' (meaning a young woman or servant). It was commonly used in medieval times to refer to female servants who were bound by a contract to serve their masters. The practice of using bondmaids gradually declined over time as social structures evolved.
