Inherited from Proto-Italic * artus , from Proto-Indo-European * h₂r-tú-s ( “ that which is fit together; juncture; ordering ” ) , from the root * h₂er- ( “ to join; to fit ” ) ; thus, ultimately from the same root as the “ close ” sense of Etymology 1).
Cognates include Sanskrit ऋ॒तु ( ṛtú , “ right time; order; rule ” ) , Ancient Greek ᾰ̓ρτῡ́ς ( ărtū́s , “ arranging; arrangement ” ) and Old Armenian արդ ( ard , “ ornament; shape ” ) . From the same root also ars, artis ( “ art ” ) and arma ( “ armor ” ) .
