N.E.D. (1906) also records forms Middle English pillerie, Middle English pullorie, Middle English pylery.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French pilori.

Etymology: < Anglo-Norman pilori, pilore, pelorie, pillori, pillorie, pellori and Old French, Middle French pilori (late 12th cent.; French pilori ; 1832 in figurative use; in Old French also pellori (c1168, in a Latin text), pilorit (c1180), and in Middle French also pillory , peulauri , pellerich (all 14th cent.), etc.), probably < post-classical Latin pilorium (from late 12th cent. in British and French sources), probably ultimately < classical Latin pīla + -ōrium -ory suffix¹.Among other forms of the post-classical word recorded are: pilloria, pilorium, pillorium, pillaurium, spilorium (Bordeaux), pellerinum, also pillaricum, pilloricum, pelloricum, pellericum (Aragon), most of which, if not all, appear to be formed on French or other vernacular forms. Forms such as Old Occitan (Gascon) piloreu, pilaureu, pitlaureu (14th cent.), Old Occitan espingoli, espilori (13th cent.), espinglori (14th cent.) are probably ultimately after the French word. See further Französisches etymol. Wörterbuch at pīla. For an early example of post-classical Latin pillorium in a British source compare:a1189 Charter of Hen. II in W. Dugdale Monasticon Anglicanum (1819) II. 351/1 Monachi de Middeltone habeant..omnes terras..cum..assisa panis et cervisiae, cum furcis, pilloriis, et cum omnibus aliis pertinentiis. It is uncertain whether the following should be taken as showing the Anglo-Norman or the Middle English word:1275 in W. Illingworth Rotuli Hundredorum (1818) II. 194 Abbatus Sancti Edmundi tenet renovacionem plegiorum apud Brocford..&habet..furcas & trebuchet apud Brocford & pyllory & trebuchet in mercato de Botholnesdal. Apparently attested earlier in surnames (as Willelmus Atte Pillori (1257–8)).

1. A device for punishment, usually consisting of a wooden framework mounted on a post, with holes or rings for trapping the head and hands, in which an offender was confined so as to be subjected to public ridicule, abuse, assault, etc.; punishment of this kind. Now historical.In Great Britain the punishment of the pillory was abolished, except for perjury, in 1815, and totally in 1837. In Delaware, U.S., it was not abolished till 1905.In quot. c1390: Christ's cross.
