While at least one reference considers the akaki derivation more likely, this kind of phonological shift, wherein the first vowel disappears, is not a common pattern in attested Japanese. That said, the kakayaki and kataki derivations are also problematic, considering the lack of any evidence for intermediary forms.

Brought to Japan in antiquity, with pits found in prehistoric sites from the, 300 BCE - 300 CE. Mentioned as a food in documents from the and  periods.

Ultimate derivation unknown. Theories include the following.
 * Possibly derived originally from a reduplication of, from the way that peaches often grow in clusters. However, the vowel shift seems unlikely given regular Japanese phonetic shifts. In addition, most reduplicated terms in Japanese have the pitch accent pattern, starting high and falling, which differs from the  pitch accent pattern of this term.
 * Possibly cognate with 🇨🇬. However, this also has the pitch accent pattern.
 * Possibly a reduplication of, from the way that peaches are hairy. The term is spelled as in some ancient documents. However,  was commonly used as man'yōgana for its phonetic value, in which cases its original Chinese meaning of  is usually ignored.

None of the above possibilities seems very compelling. Given the archaeological evidence, this term probably originated before the Japanese ancestor population migrated to the Japanese archipelago.
