Linguistic Archaeology: The Trump Clan

It was inevitable I would look at the Trump Family name, given the controversial nature of a certain President.
First off we can take the Trump name and convert it to an older form: Tarkump. The Tar- Prefix roots for the more modern language branches Ta- and Tr-.
Why the Bushel drawing over there?  Because these three variations appear in measurement words associated with a portion of produce yield from a portion of land.

Tar- (Tarea, Tarefa, Tarri)

  • Tarea: 82.56 squ. Yd (Cuba)
  • Tarea: 0.155 acre (Dominican Republic)
  • Tarefa: 0.75-1.1 acre (Brazil)
  • Tarri: 0.56 bushel (Algeria)
Ta- (Tabla, Tagwerk, Takar, Tan, Tanan, Tang, Tanica, Tao)
  • Tabla: 0.58 bushels (Somaliland)
  • Tagwerk: 0.842 bushels (Bavaria)
  • Tagwerk: 1.168 acres (Württemberg)
  • Takar: 6.81 gallons (Dutch East Indies)
  • Tan: 0.245 acres (Japan)
  • Tanan: 0.84 dry qt. (Siam)
  • Tang: 20 or 40 Tanan (Siam)
  • Tanica: 19.02 liquid qt. (Eritrea)
  • Tao: 14.93 gallons (Annam)
  • Tavola: 45 squ. Yd. (Italy)
Tr- (Trug, Truong, Truss)
  • Trug: 0.67 bushels (England)
  • Truong: 16 feet (Annam)
  • Truss: 36 pounds of straw (England)
Examining the Data
You get a branch headed off to England likely through a merchantile trade route. The Ta- and Tr- prefix are both occuring in Annam (Vietnam as a French Protectorate). Thats a big ass trade route across which humans have spread a concept. It all seems to originate with Algeria and Spanish Americas where we can say that 'Tar' means Portion of Agricultural yield from a portion of land.

Tar+kus: is a combine of 'agricultural portion' with 'jar'. We get the word Custard (Kus-tar-d) from that variation. Custard originates from: 'jar of agricultural portion'.

So the Trump ancestry originate in North Africa. Ta- is a protoindoeuropean object (along with Sta-) I previously related to the 'exodus' tale. They will have genetic relatives in Europe, North Africa, Middle East, and East Asia.
