"Words are frequently changed in an entirely arbitrary way, just for the sake of change, as is the case with taboo, and cant. The purpose is to deform the word in any possible way and render it unrecongnizable."
"Cant ,the secret language of a corporation or class of persons, such as criminals, hoboes, students, soldiers, railroaders, conspirators, and the like."
This quote should have also included secret societies.
"Canopus. In Egyptian mythology, a water god, represented on vessels of a spherical shape."
That is, the shape of a serpent.
"Cannibalism, Kan/i/bal/ism, a customary, socially approved practice, among certain barbarous peoples, of eating human flesh." "The fact that the older, learned term "anthropophagy" derives from the classic Greek anthropos (man) , and phagein (eat), suggests that from ancient times barbarous peoples were known to eat human flesh, or at least were accused of doing so."

Origin of the domestic dog
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The origin of the domestic dog is the history of the ancestry and the domestication of the dog (Canis lupus familiaris).
The earliest fossil carnivores that can be linked with some certainty to canids are the Eocene Miacids some 55 to 38 million years ago. From the miacids evolved the cat-like (Feloidea) and dog-like (Canoidea) carnivores. Most important to the ancestry of the dog was the canoid line, leading from the coyote-sized Mesocyon of the Oligocene (38 to 24 million years ago) to the fox-like Leptocyon and the wolf-like Tomarctus that wandered around North America some 10 million years ago. From the time of Tomarctus, dog-like carnivores have expanded throughout the world.
Latin Canidae Can´id`ae
n. 1. a natural family of doglike mammals including the domestic dogs, wolves, jackals, foxes, hyenas, and coyotes. Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, published 1913 by C. & G. Merriam Co.

Cancun

Kukulkán is associated with the planet Venus. Kan may also be a generic term for king or great leader.

1968, the Mexican national seal was changed to that of the rattlesnake.
The word ( Mex i co ) means, "mix of company."
Canary Island
It is said that the Fortunate Isles are called Canaria after the multitude of huge canines who live there.
So why is a bird named after a dog? A person might think that the islands were named after the birds, but according to Pliny such is not the case. "Canary" derives rather from the Latin word canis, "dog", and the name Canaria was given to one of these islands because of its population of fearsomely huge canines.
According to the chamber of commerce there never was a population of wild dogs. The Island was known for its snakes that would leap from tree limbs to catch little bird in flight. That means that the story Pliny told is a fabrication. Now what do you think of that?
Canopy:
Encyclopedia Article for canopy Expand
in architecture, a projecting hood or cover suspended over an altar, statue, or niche. It originally symbolized a divine and royal presence and was probably derived from the cosmic audience tent of the Achaemenian kings of Persia. In the Middle Ages it became a symbol of the divine presence in churches. During the 14th and 15th centuries, tombs, statues, and niches were overhung with richly decorated tabernacle work in stone, and these were reflected in delicate spiral wooden canopies over fonts.
