tole-tole
  10

Also toletole or simply tole : situation of shouting, noise, ruckus, uproar, disorder or confusion. This term, which is hardly heard anymore, arose from a biblical text of the Christian liturgy in which the populace replies to Pontius Pilate: Tolle, tolle, crucifige eum: Take away, take away, crucify him. And so it began to be said that a toletole was formed, equivalent to a tiberium or a riot.
