Western movies popularized the cowboy lifestyle, but also formed persistent stereotypes.

The first cowboys came from Mexico. They were known as vaqueros which is Spanish for “cowboys.” When the vaqueros moved their cattle north, American settlers began to copy them. The cowboy was the glue that held the West together. By the late 1890s, the open ranges of the Indian Territory were gone, but ranches sprung up keeping the cowboy employed.

In the popular view cowboys were men on horseback. In fact, most of the time they spent their days on foot repairing fences and cutting hay.
