SOMEONE PLEASE HELP

I’ve been trying to remember this story for the longest but I can’t. My high school Latin teacher taught me this and I thought it was very cool.

Essentially what I remember is the root of the word comes from something involving a temple to a certain goddess which was used as either a mint or a storage for money, the temple had geese or birds of some sort which alerted the citizens of a raid when enemies were scaling the cliff near the temple. I know this is not very good info to go off but if anyone has any idea of what I’m going for here PLEASE LMK!!
