Cauldron
A cauldron (or caldron) is a large metal pot (kettle) for cooking and/or boiling over an open fire, with a large mouth and frequently with an arc-shaped hanger. == Etymology == The word cauldron is first recorded in Middle English as ''caudroun'' (13th century). It was borrowed from Old Northern French or Anglo-Norman ''caudron''〔T. F. Hoad, ''English Etymology'', Oxford University Press, 1993 (ISBN 0-19-283098-8). p. 67.〕 (Norman-Picard ''caudron'', French ''chaudron''). It represents the phonetical evolution of Vulgar Latin '' *caldario'' for Classical Latin ''caldārium'' "hot bath", that derives from ''cal(i)dus'' "hot".〔 The Norman-French word replaces probably the initial Old English word ''ċetel'' (German ''(Koch)Kessel'' "cauldron", Dutch ''(kook)ketel'' "cauldron"), Middle English ''chetel''. The word kettle comes from the Old Norse variant spelling ''ketill'' "cauldron".〔T. F. Hoad, ''English Etymology'', Oxford University Press, 1993 (ISBN 0-19-283098-8) p.252.〕
