Alternative forms

Kam, Kom

Etymology

Borrowed from Hindi कम्बोज (kamboj, “Kamboj”) (Urdu کمبوہ‎ (“Kamboh”)), cognate to Punjabi ਕੰਬੋਜ (kamboj, “Kamboj”).

Toynbee[1], Herzfeld and Walser[2] and Chandra Chakraberty[3] link it to or derive it from Cambyses and/or the region Kambysēnē.

H. C. Seth[4] and others suggest that the word is a compound meaning "owners/rulers of [the region] Kam". H. W. Bailey analyzes the name "Kamboja" as Kam-bauja or Kan-bauja and considers the second part to be related to an Iranian root *baug- meaning "bend; free, loose, deliver, save; possess, rule", related to Sanskrit भुज् (bhuj, “use, possess; rule, govern”); Bailey interprets the first part of the compound as something related to Avestan 𐬐𐬀𐬥‎ (kan, “to long, want”), Sanskrit काम (kāma, “desire, lust”), and the whole compound as "king [ruling] at will".[5][6]

The Anthropological Survey of India suggests a long list of possible cognates, including Cambodia.[7]

Arnold J. Toynbee, in A Study of History, volume 7, page 553, observes: " ...the occurrence of the two names (i.e Kuru and Kamboja) in Transcaucasia as well as in and near India—and in Transcaucasia at close quarters—indicates that we have here two more names of Eurasian Nomad peoples who took part, and this in one another's company, in the Volkerwanderung of eighth and seventh centuries B.C; and, if, like so many of their fellows, these Kurus and Kambojas split into two wings whose paths diverged so widely, it does not seem unwarrantable to guess that a central detachment of this pair of migrating peoples may have found its way to Luristan and there have been taken into partnership by Kurus I's father Cispis".
