Kern (soldier)

A Kern was a Gaelic soldier, specifically a light infantryman in Ireland during the Middle Ages.
==Etymology==
The word ''kern'' is an anglicisation of the Middle Irish word ''ceithern'' (:kʲeθʲern) or ''ceithrenn'' meaning a collection of persons, particularly fighting men. An individual member is a ''ceithernach''.〔Electronic Dictionary of the Irish Language (eDIL), column 107; www.dil.ie〕 The word may derive from a conjectural proto-Celtic word
*''ketern''ā, ultimately from an Indo-European root meaning a chain.〔MacBain, A. ''Etymological Dictionary of the Gaelic Language'' (Stirling: E. Mackay, 1911: reissued Glasgow: Gairm 1982)〕 Kern was adopted into English as a term for a Gaelic soldier in mediaeval Ireland and as cateran, meaning Highland marauder, bandit. See Oxford Dictionary of English.
