Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: In meaning 2. πάτος is clearly a backformation of πατέω (Frisk Eranos 38, 43 ff.), thus περίπατ-ος from περι-πατέω a. corresponding ἀπόπατ-ος. In the meaning `way, path' it can be however an old variant of πόντος; πατέω is then denominative. Schwyzer 726 (a. 705) leaves the matter open. Wrong Moorhouse Class Quart. 35, 90ff. -- DELG doubts the connection with πόντος. (Further s. πόντος.) πατέω has no etym.
