Etymologie

From Old Galician-Portuguese comarca (13th century, Cantigas de Santa Maria), a back-formation from comarcar (“to share limits”), from co- (“with”) + marcar (“to delimit”), from marco (“boundary stone”), attested since the 9th century in local Latin documents, as well as its derivatives marcar and demarcar (“to delimit”). Given its early local documentation it can not be a borrowing from Old Italian, but from Gothic or Suevic [Term?] instead. Ultimately from Proto-Germanic *markō (“boundary, region”), from Proto-Indo-European *merǵ- (“boundary, border”). Compare Sicilian cumarca.
