#caput — Public Fediverse posts

#TIL about capitalism and cows.

#Cattle originally were your portable property - livestock, equipment, furniture.

Your #caput (head) was the count of all your cattle. That’s why we say “head of cattle” instead of “number of cattle”.

Someone who gathered property (like cows) grew his caput. The word caput became #Capitale for #wealth. This person became a #capitalist.

By the time America came along #Capitalism was a #governance system.
