Etymology

1. 1652, "to establish oneself in a place, settle," from L. locatus, pp. of locare "to place," from locus "a place." Sense of "mark the limits of a place" (especially a land grant) is attested from 1739 in Amer.Eng.; this developed to "establish (something) in a place" (1807) and "to find out the place of" (1882, Amer.Eng.). Location "position, place" is from 1597; Hollywood sense of "place outside a film studio where a scene is filmed" is from 1914.
2. Borrowed from Latin locātus, perfect passive participle of locō (“to place”) (see -ate (verb-forming suffix)), from locus (“place”) + -ō (verb-forming suffix). Cognate with French louer; see also local and lieu. See: French 'louer'.
