    Could be related to the term Bugonia that they made that recent movie not-exactly about. From Wikipedia:

    “Bugonia was a folk practice in the ancient Mediterranean region based on the belief that bees were spontaneously generated from a cow’s carcass.”

    So in the old days, they saw bees coming out of rotting cows (maybe these here vampar bees) and said “that’s where bees come from”
