Possibly ultimately from Ancient Greek ταρσός (tarsós, “flat of the foot, ankle, palm of the hand”) (probably through Latin tarsus by way of German Tarsus or French tarse; compare English tarsal). Perhaps the meaning extended from "flat surface of the foot or palm" to "paw of an animal." Compare the verb tassa (“to walk quietly”), which could either be a formation from tass or otherwise…
