Origin / Etymology

Borrowed from Latin memorābilia (“things to be remembered”), use as noun after Ancient Greek ἀπομνημονεύματα (apomnēmoneúmata) of the neuter plural of memorābilis (“memorable”). English use is perhaps after the Latin title Memorabilia of Xenophon’s collection of Socratic dialogues.
