Matt Hodgkinson<p>From a discussion of the etymology of the word "druid" on the Indo-European Linguistics Facebook group. It's the truth*, by my balls!</p><p>* Edit: OK, it's not entirely true. Latin testis for a witness derives from Proto-Italic *tristos, meaning a third party, literally "three stand".
