Where this word comes from

Uncertain. It is likely a deverbal suffixed with -iēs (compare faciēs, speciēs), though the vocalism of the term is incongruent with horior. Nussbaum suggests that the term is likely borrowed from Oscan 𐌇𐌄𐌓𐌉𐌀𐌌 (heriam), which—like horior—is from the root *gʰer-. According to this theory, the -ia of the Oscan term was replaced by -iēs.
