"place or position occupied by something," especially with reference to environment, late 14c., from
Anglo-French site, Old French site "place, site; position," and directly from Latin situs "a place,
position, situation, location, station; idleness, sloth, inactivity; forgetfulness; the effects of neglect,"
from past participle of sinere "let, leave alone, permit," from PIE *si-tu-, from root *tkei- "to settle,
dwell, be home" (see home (n.)).
