A person who rings bells, especially in a church or bell tower; a bell-ringer.
Spanish origin from campana (bell) plus -ero (agent suffix), literally 'bell person.' This trade-specific term reflects the importance of bell-ringing as a skilled profession in Spanish-speaking regions.
Bell-ringers had to memorize complex patterns and rhythms—they were essentially the medieval world's programmers, encoding messages in sound that the entire town could read!
