Why are CPUs called cores?

When CPUs first started coming out, and for many years after, they could only execute one set of instructions at a time. After awhile, interfaces were built to support having multiple CPUs running at the same time to increase the horsepower of a machine. These CPUs had distinct packaging still, but now the computer as a whole could execute a set of instructions per CPU. CPU manufacturers started placing multiple CPUs in one distinct package and also included the interface for the CPUs to talk within this package. So even though you had one product, it could execute multiple instructions at one time. Core is a marketing term to let people know the number of independent sets of instructions that a single CPU package can execute.
