Etymology
The word 'sandalled' is derived from the noun 'sandal,' which has its origins in the Ancient Greek word 'sandalon' (σανδάλον) and the Latin word 'sandalium.' These words describe a type of lightweight footwear that has been used since antiquity, primarily in warm climates. The use of sandals has been documented in various civilizations, including ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, where they served practical purposes such as protection for the feet while allowing ventilation. Over time, the design and materials of sandals have evolved, leading to various styles and fashions, from simple thongs to more elaborate sandals with artistic embellishments. The adjective form 'sandalled' began to emerge in the English language in the early 20th century, reflecting a cultural shift towards more casual and comfortable styles of dress.
