From then, the term “pig jar” turned to “piggy banks” which I’m sure is a fun lesson in etymology. Speaking of the study of words the Indonesian term “cèlèngan”, translated as “likeness of a wild boar”, also means “savings” and as such ancient 15th century boar banks exist. Second, I though she was more of a cash cow…
