Where this word comes from

According to De Vaan 2008, explained by Meiser 2003 as a thematized derivative of an older root aorist from Proto-Indo-European *peh₂ḱ- (“to join, fasten”). Compare the inchoative pacīscor. If pronounced with [g], as advocated by some ancient sources, it would come instead from this root's variant form *peh₂ǵ-: compare pangō. The perfect form pepigī can be interpreted as a form of pangō.
