Relating to curiosity or the scientific study of rare and unusual objects and phenomena.
Formed from 'curio' with the suffix '-logic' (relating to knowledge or study), following the pattern of words like 'biologic' or 'geologic'.
By the 18th century, Renaissance curiosity-collecting became systematic enough to deserve its own '-ology'—curiologic represents when hobbies became science.
