The wax structure with many small, six-sided cells that bees build in their hive to store honey and raise young bees.
From Old English “hunigcamb,” a compound of “hunig” (honey) and “camb” (comb or crest). The basic structure and word have been known since early Germanic times.
Bees naturally use perfect hexagons in honeycombs because this shape packs space efficiently while using the least wax. Nature discovered a geometry trick long before humans proved it with math.
