The oil known as macassar comes from Maugkasara, the name of a district in the island of Celebes. Antimacassar means literally a "protection against macassar oil," anti being the Latin word for "against." The tobacco known as Latakia takes its name from the town called by the Turks Latakia, the old town of Laodicea. Both the words bronze and copper come from the names of places.
