Best Answer

its original hood was most likely Athens

& later with slight changes rome

as homeo meaning same

plus

stasis meaning standing still or staying

but modern science put the English word together for the first time in the late 1920s

to specifically describe systematic stability or a tendency to equilibrium

rather than just simply staying the same & not changing
