whence

After that, whence music, a protester might ask.

The radio and TV stations whence come the music and the news could get even more anonymized: Many cars are coming off the assembly line missing that democratizing medium of the 20th century, AM radio.

Grizzly populations only just recovered whence they came, now leave them alone.

You may have looked at this strange, jolly person and wondered whence he came and what kind of career could have sustained him to this point.

And as I recall his surliness at the height of the George W. Bush years, from whence that 20-years-ago photo he showed was exhumed, I’m not sure he’s changed all that much.
