Etymology
Watermarking comes from old paper making: the parts water and mark refer to a faint 'sign' made in paper while it is 'wet', which you can see when you hold the sheet to the light. That's why watermarking now means adding a visible or hidden sign to images or files to show who owns them or to stop copying.
