The English word 'mustang' comes from the Mexican Spanish word 'mestengo',
derived from Spanish 'mesteño', meaning "stray livestock animal".
The Spanish word may possibly originate from the Latin expression 'animalia mixta' (mixed beasts),
referring to beasts of uncertain ownership, which were distributed in shepherd councils,
known as 'mestas' in medieval Spain.
