It is related to the Indo-European root pele- (citadel, fortified city), and a lexical family also rich in Spanish: acrópolis, necrópolis, megalópolis, policía, cosmopolita, apolítico. It is the philosopher Aristotle who uses it with greater fortune in his work "Politics", 5th century B.C., defining since then that man is a “zoom politikon”, a social animal.
