Etymology
Anaglyph comes from Greek parts ana- 'up' and glyphein 'to carve', the same root you see in glyph or hieroglyph. A helpful way to remember the modern meaning is to think of an anaglyph as a picture that gives a carved, 'raised' feeling of depth, so when you wear red-cyan glasses the image appears three-dimensional.
