Noting its byform κάμων (kámōn)—attested in the Alexipharmaca, 484, of the Anatolian-born Nicander—, Paul Kretschmer 1888 explained it as the same word as the Semitic borrowing κύμινον (kúminon, “cumin”), considering that cumin is also purgative—said also stimulant, laxative, even abortive—in large quantities, proferring Neo-Greek examples for this #σκ-/#κ- variation.
