Minute comes from the medieval Latin term minuta which, itself, comes from Latin minutus. Minutus means 'tiny' or 'incremental' as in modern English minute in the form of an adjective. Therefore, it seems likely that the origin of minute, in reference to time, is used to refer to tiny moments in time.
