Busa has the most important stock in the Vicenza area, with a secondary stock in the Ravenna area, one small in the Cosenza area and one in the north of Sardinia. The surname, which appears to be of Vicentine origin, should refer to the characteristics of the place of origin of the progenitor, that of the hole, passing from the Venetian dialect word busa (hole, but also location located below). additions provided by Giuseppe Concas BUSA: the surname Busa, although present in 99 Italian Municipalities, can count on small numbers. In Sardinia we find it in 7 Municipalities: Sassari 18, Santa Giusta 6, Cagliari 5, etc. The most consistent stocks (so to speak) of the other regions of Italy we find them in Messina 17, in Corigliano Calabro 10, in Chivasso 8 (Piedmont), in Monza (Lombardy), in Rome 7. In Sardinia is busas are the ferretti to make stockings, so the surname could be linked to the buse maker, or the job of making stockings. We believe that the word is Sicilian and derives from the Arabic bûs, which corresponds to a straw, taken from the arundo aegyptiaca (Egyptian cane), which served precisely to make stockings, later replaced by the underwire. Still today ferretti are called busas or buse in Sardinia and Sicily. It is likely that the surname was later disclosed in the rest of Italy, more from Sicily than from Sardinia; or that he even came from Sicily also here on the Sardinian island. For now we don't know anything else.
