I was giving the Hawaiian word for cowboy. As it turns out, the word "paniolo" has an interesting history and derivation. In 1838, at the request of Kamehameha III, Spanish-Mexican vaqueros came from California to teach Hawaiians how to manage the wild herds. The vaqueros became "paniolo," a word derived from "espanol" or "Spanish." The name was also given to the new Hawaiian cowboys.
