Picture pressing something hard down onto a surface so it leaves a mark. That downward press-and-mark is the heart of stamp: a tool pressed onto paper leaves a printed mark; a foot pressed hard onto the ground is a stamp of the foot. From the mark grow the postage stamp, the savings sticker, the 'mark of quality'; from the foot-press grow stamping, about, and pressing a lasting effect onto someone.
