See testa in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈtes.ta/ [Classical-Latin], [ˈt̪ɛs̠t̪ä] [Classical-Latin], /ˈtes.ta/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [ˈt̪ɛst̪ä] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: Unknown: * Perhaps as if tosta, from torreō (“to burn, parch”). * Perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *tₔtḱ-t-, from *tetḱ- (“to create, produce”) (whence Latin texō (“to weave”)). Thus cognate with Middle Persian tšt' (tašt). * Borrowed from a substrate language, as words for vessels often are.
