The term bothrodesy was coined by Sterl Phinney in 2001, arising from the use of the Greek word βo𝜃ρoς (meaning “sacrificial pit”) to describe black holes. In modern Greek, βo 𝜃ρoς has come to mean “sewage pit”, so holiodesy is a suitable replacement that was first suggested by Marc Favata [125Jump To The Next Citation Point].
