Etymology

From Proto-Italic *kerwos, from Proto-Indo-European *ḱerh₂-wó-s (“horned”), from *ḱerh₂- (“horn”) + *-wós. Cognate with Proto-Celtic *karwos (“deer”), Ancient Greek κεραός (keraós, “horned”), Proto-Indo-Iranian *ćr̥Hwás (“horn”). The shift in meaning from “horned” to “deer” may be common Italo-Celtic development, compare English hart.
