Etymology

Of unknown substrate origin, traced back to Proto-Indo-European *kisteh₂ (“woven container”) only with Middle Irish cess (“basket, causeway of wickerwork, beehive”), Old Welsh cest (“basket”). Bernal suggests, with formal problems as usual, borrowing from Egyptian qrsw (“coffin”) or qrst (“burial”).
