+ '''satiō''' ''f'' (genitive satiōnis); third declension^(Wiktionary)
+
+ ==Etymology==
+ This noun is from [[serō]] “to sow” (participle ⟨satus⟩) with the suffix [[-tiō]].^(OLD 2012)^(Wiktionary) De Vaan traces ⟨serō⟩ to [[itc-pro|*si-se/o-|t=to sow]], from [[ine-pro|*si-sh₁-e/o-]].^(de Vaan 2008)
+
+ ==Earliest recorded meaning==
+ Lewis & Short and Gaffiot cite Cicero and Varro.^(Lewis & Short 1879)^(Gaffiot 2016) Köbler dates Varro 116–27 BC and Cicero 81–43 BC.^(Köbler 2010)
+
+ ==Semantic evolution==
+ It was the act of sowing or planting, a method of planting, and what is sown, the crop, as in Cicero.^(OLD 2012)^(Lewis & Short 1879) Isidore explained it as “the action of seed”.^(Isidore)
+
+ Medieval Latin used it for a growing crop, a cornfield, sowing time and a furlong.^(Niermeyer 1976) Its accusative ⟨satiōnem⟩, “sowing time”, gave Old French ''saison'', Spanish ''sazón'' and [[en|season]] (about 1300); in Vulgar Latin the sense had shifted from sowing to sowing time.^(Wiktionary)^(Etymonline)
