vestige \ves"tige\, n. f., from l. vestigium footprint, trace,
   sign; the last part -stigium is probably akin to e. sty, v.
   i. cf. investigate.
   1. the mark of the foot left on the earth; a track or
      footstep; a trace; a sign; hence, a faint mark or visible
      sign left by something which is lost, or has perished, or
      is no longer present; remains; as, the vestiges of ancient
      magnificence in palmyra; vestiges of former population.

   2. biol. a small, degenerate, or imperfectly developed part

      generation.
      webster 1913 suppl.

   syn: trace; mark; sign; token.

   usage: vestige, trace. these words agree in marking some
          indications of the past, but differ to some extent in
          their use and application. vestige is used chiefly in
          a figurative sense, for the remains of something long
          passed away; as, the vestiges of ancient times;
          vestiges of the creation. a trace is literally
          something drawn out in a line, and may be used in this
          its primary sense, or figuratively, to denote a sign
          or evidence left by something that has passed by, or
          ceased to exist. vestige usually supposes some
          definite object of the past to be left behind; while a
          trace may be a mere indication that something has been
          present or is present; as, traces of former
          population; a trace of poison in a given substance.
