Where this word comes from

From Proto-Italic *welūmən, from Proto-Indo-European *wéluHmn̥. Cognate to Ancient Greek εἴλυμα (eíluma, “wrapper”) and Old Armenian գելումն (gelumn, “twist”). Synchronically analyzable as volvō (“roll, turn about”) + -men (noun-forming suffix); hence literally "a thing that is rolled".
