Etymology
1. Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ḱel- (“to cover”), although the specific formation is uncertain.
2. De Vaan posits as possible Proto-Italic forms *kēli- and *kēlā-. He suggests that the latter may have yielded cella by the Latin littera rule, whereby a long vowel followed by a single consonant was replaced by a short vowel followed by a geminate consonant. He also considers a diminutive formation *kēl-elā- > *kellā-, or, if formed directly from *ḱel-, *kel-ilā; other possible preforms are *kel-nā-, *kel-sā-, and *kel-dā-.
3. Cognates within Latin include clam, color, cēlō; within Italic, Faliscan 𐌂𐌄𐌋𐌀 (cela), Oscan kellaked (“he has stored”); outside Italic, Proto-Germanic *helaną (“to hide, conceal”), Sanskrit शाला (śā́lā, “large tent, building”).
