"βουκόλος" meaning in Ancient Greek

See βουκόλος in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /buː.kó.los/, /βuˈko.los/, /vuˈko.los/, /buː.kó.los/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /buˈko.los/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /βuˈko.los/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /vuˈko.los/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /vuˈko.los/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: From Proto-Hellenic *gʷoukólos, whence also Mycenaean Greek 𐀦𐀄𐀒𐀫 (qo-u-ko-ro /⁠gʷowkolos⁠/), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *gʷow-kólos, from *gʷṓws (“cow”) + *kʷól-os (“herder”), from *kʷel- (“to turn, to cultivate”). This Proto-Indo-European *gʷow-kólos shows the phonological labial dissimilation known as the eponymous boukólos rule. Compare Proto-Celtic *boukolyos.
