Derived from the Latin 'depositum', meaning 'a thing laid down or entrusted', from the verb 'deponere' (de- 'down' + ponere 'to place'). Entering Middle English via Old French in the 15th century, the term initially retained its religious and legal senses of entrusting something to another's care before expanding into financial and commercial contexts.
