Etymology

The word 'protocol' originates from the Greek word 'protokollon', which referred to a first sheet of a papyrus roll, containing the title of the document and the names of its authors. It is derived from 'proto-', meaning 'first', and 'kolla', meaning 'glue' or 'to glue', referring to the act of adhering important information at the beginning of a manuscript. Over time, 'protocol' evolved to signify a formal set of rules or guidelines established to govern a conduct, especially in diplomatic or scientific contexts. 'Protocoled' is the past tense and past participle of 'protocol', indicating that something has been placed under the governance of established procedures or documented accordingly. The use of 'protocoled' in modern contexts such as business, research, and legal documentation reflects a growing emphasis on accountability and compliance with systematic standards.
