Traditionally derived from Proto-Indo-European *gwol-, and compared with Lithuanian guõlis (“den”), Latvian guoļa (“lair, nest”), and Armenian կաղաղ (kaġaġ, “hole”). However, this comparison is uncertain and the influence of φωλεός (phōleós), as well as the slight similarity with γύαλον (gúalon, “hollow of a vessel”), must be considered.[1]
