Etymology
'actively-made' originates from the combination of 'active' and 'made', where 'active' comes from Latin 'activus', meaning 'engaged in action', and 'made' is the past participle of 'make', from Old English 'macian'.
'active' evolved from the Latin 'activus' through Old French 'actif', and 'made' from Old English 'macian', eventually forming the modern English term 'actively-made'.
Initially, 'active' meant 'engaged in action', and 'made' meant 'to create'. Together, they convey the idea of something created with effort.
