Etimologia (Anglès)

From unattested *calamis ("damaged") + -tās from Proto-Indo-European *kl̥h₂emi- from *kelh₂- (“to beat”). Compare the negated incolumis from Proto-Italic *enkalamis, from Proto-Indo-European *n̥kl̥h₂emi-. Cognate with clādēs, Proto-Celtic *klamitos and others.
An old form by l-d-alternation is Old Latin kadamitās.
