Compare post-classical Latin machicolamentum (1346), machecollum (from 1370 in British sources), and the corresponding verb machecollare (from 1433 in British sources), machicollare (1449); also Middle French machecoleis (1404; > French mâchicoulis machicoulis n.), Old Occitan machacol (c1359).With β. forms compare post-classical Latin mascalcionum machicolation (1547 in a British source).
