There is a Latin word 'ambactus, meaning a servant. That is a servant being sent with a message. There is a Celtic word 'ambiactos' meaning a messenger (servant). There is also Biblical references to messengers/ambassadors in the Old Testament via the Hebrew word Tsir meaning one who goes on an errand. To do injury to an Ambassador/Messenger was to insult the King who sent him
