Where this word comes from

Unknown. Two explanations have been proposed: as a loan from Greek αἰρομένη (airoménē), and as having been borrowed from an Etruscan source; De Vaan (2008) points out that connection with αἰρομένη (airoménē) – the feminine middle/passive participle of αἴρω (aírō), in turn the contracted form of ἀείρω (aeírō) – is problematic, as there is no example in Greek of the use of the feminine form of this participle as a noun meaning "burden"; and that an Etruscan etymology is impossible to prove.
