Reading the debate about Daci I noticed that Albanian for �rock� is �carpa� (I think). I would assume that this is cognate with Latin �calc-� (again I think it�s the correct form) , Welsh �craig� (rock) and �carreg� (stone). Interestingly Welsh has also �sialc� (�chalk� from English) and �calch� (�lime� from Latin) but what is the proposed PIE reconstruction and what are its reflexes in other languages. I would be interested in toponymic forms as well.
