There are various competing theories amongst academic coreologists and amateur coreophiles about the original core of -core.
The Primate of the Church of -core, Archbishop Flux, has pronounced that:
In the beginning God created the heaven and the -core.
And the -core was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the Barbelith. And the Spirit of Google Image Search moved upon the face of the Barbelith.
And God said, Let there be -core: and there was -core.
And God saw the -core, that it was really quite good, if a bit juvenile.
The great coreographer, Professor H. Fly, counters this theory with his belief that our primate ancestors(1), bored one day in the Garden of Eden, invented -core to amuse themselves, since each day lasted for hundreds of years in those prelapsarian times, and God was having too much fun creating ridiculous marsupials to supervise the apes adequately.
(1)Our primate ancestors: specifically Corilla & Corang Utan.
Irredeemable romantics like me, however, see the mish mash of imagery inherent in -core as stemming from an original (and possibly mythical) Indo-European Mother Core:
The Manticore.
