barca

(Anglų k.)

baris (a type of flat-bottomed freighter used on the Nile in Ancient Egypt)

Late Latin, first attested in a late 2nd or early 3rd-century inscription in Balsa (ILS 5069). Surfaces again much later in Medieval Latin as barca, by that point a borrowing from Romance. Regular syncope of Vulgar Latin *bārica, from Latin bāris (“Egyptian shallow wide flat-bottomed river boat”), from Ancient Greek βᾶρις (bâris), from Demotic br, from Egyptian bꜣjr (“transport ship”), b-bA-A-y:r*Z1-P1
