Etymology
The word 'caravan' comes from the Persian word 'kārvān' which means a group of travelers. This term historically referred to a group of merchants or pilgrims traveling together across deserts or through hostile regions. Over time, the concept of a caravan expanded to include groups traveling for leisure or transportation in various forms, such as by horse, mule, or vehicle. The addition of the suffix '-ed' forms the verb 'caravanned', indicating the action of traveling in a caravan. Caravanning has become a popular form of travel in many cultures, often associated with vacationing and exploring new areas in a communal manner. As travel technology evolved, so did the concept, leading to the modern-day practice of caravanning with RVs and trailers.
