Etymology
The origin is uncertain.
According to Jahukyan, an Iranian borrowing: compare Persian سندان (sendân, “anvil”).[1] On the other hand, Greppin and Starostin reckon this term is akin to Lezghian: compare Lezgi сунт (sunt, “chisel”), Rutul сант (sant, “hammer”), Tsakhur сант (sant, “mason's hammer”).[2][3]
