Etymology
'definitively-gathered' originates from the combination of 'definitively' and 'gathered'. 'Definitively' comes from Latin 'definitivus', meaning 'conclusive', and 'gathered' is the past participle of 'gather', from Old English 'gadrian', meaning 'to bring together'.
'Definitively' evolved from Latin 'definitivus' through Old French 'definitif', while 'gathered' evolved from Old English 'gadrian'.
Initially, 'definitively' meant 'in a conclusive manner', and 'gathered' meant 'brought together'. The combined form retains these meanings.
