词源

Borrowed from French magenta, from Italian Magenta, sometime after the colour was named after the town to celebrate the Franco-Italian victory at the Battle of Magenta in 1859; possibly in reference to the colour of the uniforms worn by Zouave French troops there. The town's name derives from Latin Castra Maxentia (“the camp named Maxentia”), referring to the emperor Maxentius. Compare Castra Regina for a similar appositional use of a proper noun with castra.
