Noun [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /hes.tí.aː/, /esˈti.a/, /esˈti.a/, /hes.tí.aː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /(h)esˈti.a/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /esˈti.a/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /esˈti.a/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /esˈti.a/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Traditionally connected to Latin Vesta and Sanskrit वसति (vasati, “to abide, dwell”); other theories include a connection with ἐσχάρᾱ (eskhárā, “hearth”) and Proto-Slavic *jestěja (“hearth”). Beekes rejects all these theories and proposes a Pre-Greek origin.
