Perché è feminine?

Têtes is feminine because it derives from the Latin "testa" (originally meaning "earthenware pot" or "shell," later used metaphorically for "head"), which was a feminine noun in Latin, and French inherited this grammatical gender through regular sound changes that dropped the final -a ending. The semantic shift from "pot" to "head" likely occurred through the metaphorical comparison of the head's rounded shape to a pot or vessel.
