A bundle or burden, especially used in historical contexts for a load of goods or merchandise.
From Old English and Middle English, possibly related to Germanic roots meaning bundle or load; the exact origin is uncertain but it appears in medieval texts relating to commerce and transport.
This word is so old it's practically archaeological—you'll find it in medieval English records of merchants complaining about customs taxes on their furdels, but modern English just uses 'bundle' or 'package' instead!
