The Origins
of the Word Luggage
Luggage, as we know it today, has an interesting history dating back to the 12th century. During the Crusades, wheeled containers were first used to transport weaponry, marking the early beginnings of luggage.
The term "luggage" itself has an etymology rooted in the verb "lug". In 1596, the word "luggage" was officially added to the Oxford English Dictionary, with the definition "denoting inconveniently heavy baggage".
This evolution of the word reflects the association of luggage with heavy and cumbersome items that need to be transported. From the 12th century to the late 19th century, luggage continued to evolve, eventually leading to the development of the modern suitcase and other convenient forms of travel bags.
