Etymology
From, as the region was a centre for bronze production. Already in the first century CE Pliny speaks of the quality of and refers to. First attested as a bare feminine noun in 510 CE. Notably, bronze is a traditional material for making both bells and steelyards.

It has also been suggested that Campania was simply the location where St Paulinus introduced bells to Christian ceremony.

The word has alternatively been linked, probably spuriously, to the Ancient Greek, owing to a supposed resemblance of shape, and also to Thessalian variants of the Ancient Greek bearing the sense of 'cross-piece, middle-beam'.

Noun

 * 1) a large bell used in late classical or medieval church towers or steeples.
 * 2) a tower for such a bell, a campanile, belfry
 * 3) a steelyard (device for weighing)
