If there's no such cognate in Eastern Europe (at least NE Eurpe),
Celts-German picked this word from where?

I think you have been here longer than I have.
You must have missed previous mails on the list.
I wrote a few days ago.
Proto-Germanic borrowed an Asiatic word and transmitted it to Celts
when proto-Germanic entered Europe.
Cf. Mongolian and alias *mor
The slavic word *ar/or is interesting too.
What about Turcic *ar-qun "a cross-bred horse" ?
in Starostin
I told you PIE did not invent domestication of horses.
All these words are borrowed.
