    declension-2
Where this word comes from

Perhaps from bōs (“cow”) + -ētum (“place”), by analogy to fruticētum, salicētum, and senticētum for the epenthetic -c- and būcina (“horn”) and būculus (“young bull”) for the būc- stem form. Others have proposed the combination of bōs with Proto-Indo-European *kayt-, *ḱayt- (“forest, wasteland, pasture”) (whence Proto-Germanic *haiþī (“heath, wasteland”)). This regularly corresponds to the form būcītum, with the form in -ē- due to reanalysis.
