Attested in the 1st century CE. Transmitted in Val. Max. 8, 1. damn. 8 a gloss τῇ τῶν Γάλλων γλώττῃ (têi tôn Gállōn glṓttēi), from Gaulish. This leaves considered a borrowing from the Punic descendant of Proto-Semitic *ḥamṯ- (“abdomen”), since the voiceless pharyngeal fricative there would have been weakened by that time and southern Gaul was teeming with Punic colonies.
