socle
The socle of a mathematical object, such as a group, module, or ring, is the sum/subgroup/submodule of all its minimal non-zero subobjects. In the context of algebraic geometry, it is the maximal subsheaf of a sheaf that is both Artinian and Noetherian. Essentially, the socle can be seen as an intrinsic feature revealing 'minimal' or 'simple' components of the structure of the object.

Socle
In architecture, a socle is a short plinth used to support a pedestal, sculpture or column. In the field of archaeology, this term is used to refer to a wall base, frequently of stone, that supports the upper part of the wall, which is made of a different material, frequently mud brick. This was a typical building practice for ancient Greece, resulting in the frequent preservation of the plans of ancient buildings only in their stone-built lower walls, as at the city of Olynthos.
Chambers 20th Century Dictionary
Socle
sō′kl, n. (archit.) a plain, square, flat member used instead of a pedestal to support a column, &c.: a plain face or plinth at the foot of a wall. [Fr.—It. zoccolo—L. socculus, dim. of soccus, a high-heeled shoe, as if a support.]
