Origin

Old English dott 'head of a boil'. The word is recorded only once in Old English, then not until the late 16th century, when it is found in the sense 'a small lump or clot', perhaps influenced by Dutch dot 'a knot'. The sense 'small mark or spot' dates from the mid 17th century.

The word dot appears only once in Old English manuscripts, meaning ‘the head of a boil’. It then disappears until the late 16th century, when it re-emerges in the sense ‘a small lump or clot’. The sense ‘small mark or spot’ dates from the mid-17th century. In on the dot, ‘exactly on time’, the dot is one appearing on a clock face to mark the hour. Writers and printers sometimes use a dot in place of a number or letter that they do not know or do not want to specify, and this may be the origin of the year dot, ‘a very long time ago’—the dot could also be a zero.
