Etymology
The term 'roweled' originates from the word 'rowel', which refers to a spiked wheel or revolving disk attached to a spur. The word 'rowel' itself comes from the Middle English 'rouelle', which means a small wheel, derived from the Latin 'rota', meaning wheel. The practice of using rowels in horseback riding has ancient roots, possibly tracing back to Roman times when spurs were first used to command horses. Over the centuries, roweled spurs have evolved, used not only for practicality in controlling horses but also as symbols of horsemanship and ranch culture. The design of rowels has varied with periods of history, ranging from simple to intricately decorated versions used in competitive equestrian events. This evolution reflects the development of horseback riding as both an essential skill for transportation and a sport.
