Although the dish is generally believed to have originated in Italy, the word "lasagna" is derived from the Greek word lasana meaning "trivet or stand for a pot", "chamber pot" The word was later borrowed by the Romans as "lasanum" to mean cooking pot. The Italians then used the word to refer to the dish in which what is now known as lasagne is made. Another theory suggests that lasagna might have come from Greek laganon, a kind of flat sheet of pasta dough cut into stripes
