From Proto-Italic *tenos, from Proto-Indo-European *ten- (“to stretch, draw”). The specific etymology is debated: De Vaan suggests that it is merely a petrified accusative of extent of the s-stem *tenos and rejects Meiser's suggestion that it stems from the Proto-Indo-European perfect participle *tn̥-wós.
