"Given a word $w=a_1a_2\cdots a_n$ on a set $\Sigma$ (may or may not be finite), a cyclic conjugate of $w$ is a word $v$ derived from $w$ based on a cyclic permutation. In other words, $v=\pi(a_1)\pi(a_2)\cdots \pi(a_n)$ for some cyclic permutation $\pi$ on $\lbrace a_1,\ldots, a_n\rbrace$. Equivalently, $v$ and $w$ are cyclic conjugates of one another iff $w=st$ and $v=ts$ for some words $s,t$."
So if I understand it correctly, the cyclic conjugates of $abca$ would be $abca$, $bcaa$, $caab$ and $aabc$.
Similar example is given on PlanetMath: For example, the cyclic conjugates of the word $ababa$ over $\lbrace a,b\rbrace$ are $$baba^2,\quad aba^2b,\quad ba^2ba,\quad a^2bab,\quad\mbox{and itself}.$$
To be true, I didn't thought it to find in something for permutations. But after you sent me the link, I thought the term "cyclic" should have made me to look for it, even in the permutations related search results.
