The term “cowboy” is very descriptive of the way of life of the men who herded cattle across different regions of North America. Cowboys drove their cattle long distances through the prairies and mountains of Colorado, Arkansas, Wyoming and Texas away from cold weather, toward fresh water and ultimately to slaughter in order to supply beef for America’s growing population. The first cowboys came from Mexico and were called vaqueros. They rode on horses to herd their cattle, a method introduced to the American continent by the Spanish in the early 15th Century, instead of on foot. Vaqueros moved their cattle north from Mexico into America to graze, and the Americans soon began to use the vaqueros’ herding method to control large herds of cattle over the West’s wide open spaces.
