Where this word comes from

Uncertain. According to William Smith, possibly of Phoenician origin, from [script needed] (tarchon, “citadel, high rock”), referring to the location above the sea. However, compare the names Tarquinia and Tarracina. Catalan folk etymology derived the name from Tarraho, son of the biblical figure Tubal. Strabo and Megasthenes linked the name to Tearcon, a pharaoh who had campaigned in Spain.
