Etymology 2
de shackle c 1600, of de 1 origin. Most plausibly from the plural of de goh *scal, attested in goh fuozscal kind of trap or lock for feet. However, this would require that the word remained unattested for about 800 years. Alternatively identical to etymology 1 with the sense derived from the clinking sound.
