===Etymology===
{{ja-kanjitab|yomi=k|かばん}}
{{wp|lang=ja}}

Possibly derived from {{der|ja|zh|夾板|sort=かばん}} or {{m|zh|夾槾|tr=jiāmàn||[[board]]s for [[pressing]] or [[holding]] [[thing]]s [[together]]}},<ref name="DJR">{{R:Daijirin}}</ref><ref name="KDJ">{{R:Kokugo Dai Jiten}}</ref> modern {{cog|nan|-}} reading ''kiap-pán''. Another proposed etymology is Dutch {{cog|nl|kabas|t=[[bag]]}}, likely introduced through the Japanese-Dutch trade during the {{w|Edo period}}.

The original meaning of the kanji {{m|ja|鞄#Kanji|鞄}} referred to [[tanned]] [[leather]] or a [[tanner]] who produces such material.  The native reading (''{{ll|ja|訓読み|kun'yomi}}'') ''kaban'' only appears from the {{w|Meiji period}} (1868–1912).<ref name="KDJ"/>

First attested with this reading to a work from 1877;<ref name="KDJ"/> over the period of roughly 1877–1887, this word grew in popularity and displaced the previous term {{m|ja|胴乱|tr=dōran||[[satchel]]}}.<ref name="KDJ"/><ref>{{R:Nipponica}}</ref>
