Russ,
 
It's from Latin..   " Puppis"  means  .....  STERN
It refers to a short afterdeck usually above the Quarterdeck.
 
The Verb "Poop" means that water breaks over the stern or quarterdeck
 
It has NOTHING to do with Sanitary needs.. LOL
 
Ralph

Ralph,  I think we would all like to hear a detailed account of how the term 
"Poop Deck" came to be.  Was it really a sanitary necessity on old sailing 
ships or is it another Brass Monkey?????       "Ralph E. Ahseln" <[EMAIL
