means A two-humped camel native to the steppes of Central Asia, built for brutal temperature swings and scarce water.

from Named for Bactria, an ancient region roughly in modern Afghanistan and Central Asia, through which these camels were long associated with trade and travel. The word reached English via Latin 'Bactrianus,' from Greek, tied to the Bactrian people and their homeland — the camel essentially carries a place-name on its back, humps included.
