Etymology: "Caravaneers" is the plural of "caravaneer," a person who travels in a caravan. The base word "caravan" entered English in the late 1500s from French "caravane," itself borrowed from Persian "kārwān" by way of Turkish and Arabic, while the "-eer" ending comes through French "-ier" from Latin "-arius," a suffix for a person connected with something.
