untraveled

/ʌntɹˈævəld/ adj

Bearing few travellers

Word Origin Travel has a dark origin: it comes from a Latin word for a torture device with three stakes — 'trepalium.' The idea was that traveling was arduous, like being tormented. Untraveled means not having endured that hardship — not having journeyed. The same root gives us triple (threefold) and impale (to pierce with a stake). So travel literally meant 'to be impaled by three stakes' — a vivid metaphor for the pains of medieval journeys.
