Hanseatic

Hanseatic
Hanseatic 1610s, from Hanseatic League, medieval confederation of North German towns, from M.L. Hanseaticus, from M.L.G. hanse "fellowship, merchants' guild," from O.H.G. hansa "military troop, band, company." Related to Goth. hansa "troop, company, multitude," O.E. hos "attendants, retinue." M.E. borrowed hanse from O.Fr. hanse and M.L. hansa (both from O.H.G.) in sense of "a company of merchants" (late 12c.). Cf. hanshus "guild hall" (12c.).
