From Old Galician and Old Galician-Portuguese boveda (13th century, Cantigas de Santa Maria). Attested during the High Middle Ages as bovata.[1] From Germanic, probably from a Gothic *buwitha, from a derivative of Proto-Germanic *būaną (“to dwell reside, build”).[2] Cognate with Portuguese abóbada and Spanish bóveda.

Spanish
Etymology
Possibly from Vulgar Latin *volvita, alteration of Latin volūta, from volvere (“to turn”), but this presents serious phonetic difficulties. Compare Portuguese abóbada. More likely of Germanic origin, from a Gothic *buwitha, from a derivative of Proto-Germanic *būaną (“to dwell reside, build”).[1] Doublet of voluta.
