Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]

Etymology: Through dissimilation and at the same time connection with the better understandable κλῆρος arose from the older ναύκρα-ρος, which remained only in techical sense, the usual ναύκλαρος, ναύκληρος. Prop. "who stands at the head of a ship"; so ναύ-κρᾱρ-ος with the same zero grade as the 2. member as in ὀρθό-κραιρα (s. κραῖρα). Here κρᾱ-ρ- can stand beside κερα-σ- or (better) for *κρᾱσ-ρ- which belong to *κρᾱσ-ν- in κρᾱν-ίον (s.v. and κάρᾱ); zero- and full grade forms in κάρηνα (\< *καρασ-ν-α) and Lat. cere-brum (\< * ceras-r-om), s. κάρηνα and κέρας. The same final element in Boeot. (Λ)α-κρᾱρίδας \< *Λά-κρᾱρ-ος; cf. Λέ-αρχος a.o. Solmsen RhM 53, 151 ff. -- Lat. LW [loanword] nauclērus; cf. Friedmann Die jon. u. att. Wörter 26ff., with v. Blumenthal Gnomon 15, 166 n. 2.
