This word comes from "date", the passive participle of the verb fazer , 'do' in Old English (and Portuguese today), or 'made' . Initially meant indication of time not only writing but also a place, since a letter was opened with something like 'date in Seville on June 22' or, as in the letter from Don Quixote to Dulcinea, 'date in the heart of the Sierra Morena, on August 27.
