Etymology

origin and the way in which meanings have changed throughout history.

The term 'caucus' is believed to have originated from the Dutch word 'kauw', which means 'shelled nuts'. The early American political parties are said to have held their meetings in private rooms, where they would gather around a large pot or barrel, filled with shelled nuts or 'kauw'. During these gatherings, the party members would discuss and make decisions about the party's affairs, including the selection of their nominees for public offices. Over time, the term 'caucus' came to be used as a synonym for a political meeting or gathering, where the party members would discuss and make decisions about the party's affairs.
