Etymology
The word 'herder' originated from the Middle Dutch word 'herder', meaning a shepherd or keeper of domestic animals. The term has been used for centuries to describe individuals responsible for guiding and managing herds of livestock or groups of people. Herders play a crucial role in agriculture and animal husbandry, ensuring the well-being and movement of the herd. Over time, the term has evolved to encompass not only those who care for animals but also those who oversee and supervise groups in various contexts.
