Where this word comes from

Inherited from Vulgar Latin *volta, from *volŭta (perhaps via *volvita (“a turn”)), from Latin volūta, feminine of volūtus, perfect passive participle of volvō. Also possibly from the past participle of volgere (volto), or from the verb voltare. Compare Spanish vuelta; cf. also Spanish bóveda, French voûte. Cognate with Sicilian vota.
