refuge

  • asylum - Comes from Greek asulon, "refuge," from asulos, "inviolable."
  • bast - A word for an asylum, refuge, or sanctuary.
  • harbor - First meant "shelter" and "lodging," and that is how the word first entered English place-names, as a "place of shelter; refuge" for a crowd of people. A port is a haven for vessels and it is equipped for loading and unloading ships, while a harbor is a haven for vessels but does not necessarily have onshore facilities.
  • redoubt - Has no connection to "doubt," but comes from French redoute and Latin reductus, "hidden place, refuge, stronghold."
