Etymology
The origin counts as unknown.[1][2]
Nor baṙgirkʿ haykazean lezui connects with քուրձ (kʿurj, “sackcloth”)[3] – the consonant variation finds its counterpart in Semitic cognates of this word, see there, and is explainable with Iranian origin, compare the relations of գանձ (ganj, “treasure”).
