Boila

Boila (Bulgarian: боила or боил; Church Slavonic: бꙑлꙗ; Greek: βοιλα, Old Turkic: 𐰉𐰆𐰖𐰞𐰀, romanized: Boyla) was a title worn by some of the Bulgar and Göktürk aristocrats (mostly of regional governors and noble warriors) in the First Bulgarian Empire (681-1018) and Second Turkic Khaganate (682-744).[1] For the linguists, the title "Boila" is the predecessor or an old form of the title "Bolyar".

The Boil(a)s were two types: internal ("great") and external ("small"). The internal Boil(a)s were governors of the Comitates (administrative regions).

Etymology

Most of the popular linguists believe that "Boila" has old-Turkic origin and the meaning of the word can be translated as "noble".
