Etymology

From Proto-Baltic, from Proto-Balto-Slavic *mat-, from Proto-Indo-European *m?-, *m-et- (“to mark, to measure”), whence also Latvian mest (“to throw”) (older meaning “to measure”, from Proto-Indo-European *m?-ti- (“measure, wisdom”)). The original meaning was thus “measure, mark” (a derived meaning of “compensation, payment (for milling grain)” < “amount measured to be given as payment” is attested in older sources and in some dialects). The semantic evolution was “measure” > “body part used as measure unit” > “small measure / small body part used as measure unit” > “hair” (note that human and animal hair (wool) was an ancient small measure unit among many peoples, including ancient Latvians). In some expressions, traces of the earlier meaning of mats as “small measure unit” can still be seen: uz mata (“correct”), mats mat?, ne par matu. Cognates include Lithuanian mãtas (“measure, measure unit”), Russian ??????? (métit?, “to mark, to label”), Sanskrit ???? (m?ti), ?????? (m??ti, mim??ti, “to measure”), Albanian matë (“measure”).
