Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum

Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term combines 'cultural', derived from the Latin 'cultura' (tilling, cultivation), via Middle French, and 'identity', from the Late Latin 'identitas' (sameness), rooted in 'idem' (same). Together, the modern sociological concept emerged in the late 20th century to describe the identity or feeling of belonging to a group.
