Etymology: "Scrolled" is the past tense and past participle of the verb "scroll," so the origin is that of "scroll." The noun came into English in the late Middle Ages from Anglo-Norman and Old French "escroe," meaning a strip or roll of parchment or paper, and it may be related to Medieval Latin "scrota," though the ultimate source is uncertain. Its original sense was the rolled-up manuscript itself, a sense that still survives in "Torah scroll" and in the architectural spiral ornament on a column capital.
