See cilts on Wiktionary

Noun [Latvian]

IPA: [tsîlts] Audio: lv-riga-cilts.ogg
Etymology: From an older, obsolete verb cilt (“to rise”), or perhaps, via ablaut, from celt (“to raise, to lift, to build”). The meaning of cilt, “to rise,” is linked to that of “to appear, to originate, to be born;” the original being thus changed from “(where) one rises, is born” to “tribe.” Cognates include Lithuanian kiltìs.
