What does bucca mean?

Bucca
Bucca is a fairy in Cornish folklore that was believed to be a spirit that inhabited mines and coastal communities as a hobgoblin during storms. The mythogological creature is linked to the Púca from Irish and Welsh folklore. Rev W. S. Lach-Szyrma, one 19th-century writer on Cornish antiquities, suggested the Bucca had originally been an ancient pagan deity of the sea, though his claims are mainly conjecture. Neopagan groups, principally the Witchcraft coven of Ros An Bucca, have began to acknowledge the Bucca in their rites. In the children's book Thomas and the Tinners by Jill Paton Walsh, Buccas have become fairies who work in Cornish tin mines, granting wishes in exchange for food.
