語源 1

From cornū (“horn”) +‎ petō (“attack, assail”) +‎ -a (suffix deriving agent nouns from verbs). The two-word expression cornū petō "attack with (one's) horn(s)" is attested already in Classical Latin (e.g. Horace Sermones 2.1.52, Vergil Aeneid 9.629). The compound adjective is used in the Latin Bible as a translation of Biblical Hebrew נַגָּח (naggāḥ, “(apt to) goring”) (which occurs in the Torah only in the two verses of Exodus cited below). The Latin translation may be influenced by Ancient Greek κερατιστής (keratistḗs), the translation used by the Septuagint, which is built on κέρας (kéras, “horn”). (Although the Latin Vulgate was intended to be a translation from Hebrew rather than from Greek, Jerome was familiar with the Septuagint and with prior Latin translations based on it.)

     Quod si bos cornupeta fuerit ab heri et nudiustertius, et contestati sunt dominum eius, nec recluserit eum, occideritque virum aut mulierem : et bos lapidibus obruetur, et dominum eius occident.

     But if the bovine has previously been attacking with its horns, and its owner has been called to witness, and has not kept it confined, and it has killed a man or a woman: the bovine shall be stoned and its owner shall be killed.

   • 405 CE, Jerome, Vulgate Exodus.21.36:

     But if he knew the bovine was attacking with its horns previously, and its owner did not guard it: he shall pay back a bovine for a bovine, and receive the whole carcass.

   • 1578, Johannes Brenz, Operum reuerendi et clarissimi theologi D. Ioannis Brentii, praepositi Stutgardiani,‎, volume 3, Tübingen, page 269:

     Cornu, more Hebraeo, significat vel regnum, quòd Reges balsamo e cornu sumpto ungebantur: vel vires et potentiam, quòd animalia cornupeta grassentur cornibus suis, tanquàm armis.

     Horn, according to Hebrew usage, signifies either kingship, because kings were anointed with balm from a horn: or strength and power, because goring animals attack with their horns, like weapons.
