Where this word comes from

Inherited from Proto-Italic *sekʷōr, from Proto-Indo-European *sékʷetor, from *sekʷ- (“to follow”). The perfect participle secūtus must have been created innovatively as a replacement for the more archaic participle *sekʷtos, which is the source of sector (“to follow continually”). The impetus for the remodeling was perhaps the analogical pressure of the participles to other uō-verbs, such as minūtus. Alternatively, Leppänen suggests that this reshaping occurred so as to avoid homophony with sectus. Cognates include Sanskrit सचते (sácate), Avestan 𐬵𐬀𐬗𐬀𐬌𐬙𐬉 (hacaitē) and Ancient Greek ἕπομαι (hépomai).
