Dozen is another word for the number twelve. It originates from the Latin word duodecim. Twelve dozen are known as a gross. Twelve gross (1728) is called a great gross, a term most often used when shipping or buying items in bulk. The use of twelve as a base number, known as the duodecimal system, probably originated in Mesopotamia.
