editEtymology
editPerhaps from Proto-Balto-Slavic *píkis, *píkulas, from Proto-Indo-European *pik- (“pitch”) or alternatively connected to *pey(H)- (“fat”). Cognate with Old Prussian pyculs (“hell”) (possibly a Polish borrowing) and akin to Latvian piķis (“pitch”), Lithuanian pìkis (“pitch”) (sometimes considered Germanic borrowings); Ancient Greek πίσσα (píssa, “pitch”), Latin pix (“pitch”). A borrowing from Latin picula (“pitch”) is not excluded.
