Etymology

The term 'cubbed' derives from the word 'cube,' which comes from the Latin 'cubus,' meaning a 'cube' or 'dice.' The Latin 'cubus' has its roots in the Greek word 'kybos,' which referred to a six-sided die. The evolution of the term signifies its geometric attributes, where the properties of cubical shapes have been explored throughout mathematical history. The shift from a descriptor of a physical die to a broader context of three-dimensional shapes illustrates the language’s adaptability in referencing form and space.
