Abstract:	This article uses a lens of cultural history, cultural heritage and heritage to trace the legacy of Spanish medieval horsemanship across time and space in the development of the California vaquero and Texas cowboy. The Texas cowboy is a highly recognizable icon in American national myths and narratives. Myths and narratives present idealized and factually inaccurate accounts of history. This article examines the development of equestrian practices in their historical context alongside the conflation of history and horsemanship. It thus reveals the influence of geopolitical ambitions, rivalries, and practical necessity, on the development of two new equestrian cultures in the New World.
