Etymology
From Old Galician-Portuguese purgamẽo (13th century, Cantigas de Santa Maria), from Late Latin pergaminum, from pergamīna, from Ancient Greek Περγαμηνός (Pergamēnós, “of Pergamun”), which is named for the Ancient city of Pergamon (modern Bergama) in Asia Minor, where it was invented as an expensive alternative for papyrus. Cognate with Portuguese pergaminho, Spanish pergamino, English parchment. See: Old Portuguese Nouns '
