Inherited from Old French Arteis, from Latin Atrebates (pagus Atrebatensis), from Atrebates, a pre-Roman Gallo-Germanic tribe in northwestern Gaul, from Proto-Celtic *ad-treb-a-t-es (“inhabitants”), from *treb (“home, building”), see also Middle Breton treff (“city”), Welsh tref (“town”) and Old Irish treb (“farm, building”), all from Proto-Indo-European *treb- (“settlement”) (same source as Old English þorp (“village”), Lithuanian troba (“house”), and Provencal trevar (“to live in a village or house”)). See also Old Irish aittrebaid (“inhabitant”).
