the.com/domestication

means The process of taming and breeding wild species over generations so they live alongside humans, depend on us, and serve our needs — for food, labor, or company.

from From Latin domesticus, 'belonging to the house' (domus, 'house'), via French domestiquer. The word's root is pure real estate: it's not about taming wildness so much as moving a creature inside the walls, making it part of the household economy. English picked up 'domesticate' around the 17th century, first for servants and manners, then stretched it to cover wolves becoming dogs and grasses becoming wheat — the long, slow move from out there to in here.
