兜 |
かぶと Jinmeiyō |
kun'yomi |
From Old Japanese. Found in the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE with the reading kaputo.[1]
Derivation currently unknown.
- A surface analysis might suggest a derivation from 被る (kaburu, “to wear something on the head”). However, that reading derives from older form kagafuru and doesn't appear until 850,[1] some time after the first appearance of kabuto.
- An alternative analysis might suggest a compound of 頭 (kabu, “head”, kun'yomi and native Japanese term) + 兜 (to, “helmet”, on'yomi and borrowing from Chinese). However, the “head” sense with the kabu reading doesn't appear until near the end of the Muromachi period.[1]
