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, 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?????
