Watts describes this as "a small decoration hanging from the headband of a bridle onto the horse's face, rather like an inverted horseshoe or crescent moon, reminding one of a similar decoration worn by the Moors." Spanish sources do not reference this term, but it may be an apharesis of cernaja, which the DRAE defines as a sort of ornament with fringe or tassels placed on an ox's forehead to ward off flies.
