Etymology

From the Ancient Greek πύον (púon, “pus”), from Proto-Indo-European *pu-; compare Sanskrit पूयति (pūyati, “stinks, rots”), Ancient Greek πύθω (pýtho, “to rot”), Gothic 𐍆𐌿𐌻𐍃 (fuls, “foul”), Old English fuls (“foul”), perhaps ultimately echoic of a natural exclamation of disgust or abhorrence.
