Compare Italian puntato pointed (1427; now archaic), marked with points (1625). Compare earlier punctated adj.Quot. 1860 at sense 3 translates the following in Newton:1704 I. Newton Enumeratio Linearum 145 Punctatam quæ conjugatam habet Ovalem infinite parvam id est punctum.

1. Having the surface marked or covered with small points, dots, spots, or circular depressions or elevations. Also: of the nature of such markings; composed of or occurring as small spots or dots.
