Where this word comes from
From Celtiberian, from a compound of Proto-Celtic *arkʷos (“bow”) + *brigā (“hill”), i.e. “bow-shaped hill”. Another suggested derivation from *artos (“bear”) is dubious owing to the unexplained sound change to c; the connection to “bow” is solidified by images of bows found on local stelae.
