If you want a wider European context, then France's Homme de Bouc and the Roman Bacchus are good places to start.

If you're looking for Bu vocabulary then there's a ton of it in English (to mention nothing of Gaelic), far too much to list here. It can be broken down into three broad categories, though: language dealing with fear (eg. Boo!), language dealing with animals, particularly the horned herds (bovine, butcher - oboe and bugle, even, since both these instruments were made from horns), and language dealing with plants (boughs, boles - but booze is the most revealing).
