syntheses

/ˈsɪnθəˌsis/ noun

plural of synthesis

Word Origin Synthesis is from Greek syn- 'together' and tithenai 'to put' — literally 'putting together.' The plural syntheses follows the Greek pattern. The root tithenai is from PIE *dhe- 'to set, put,' which also gives us do, fact, and theme. So synthesis is a putting-together, and related words like thesis (a placing), antithesis (opposite placing), and hypothesis (under-placing, a foundation) all share that idea of setting something down.
