18 canelo
(Sp. model spelled same [kanélo] < canela 'cinnamon' < Old French canele < Italian cannella, diminutive of canna 'cane,' because of the canelike shape of dried cinnamon bark). A red-roan or cinam-mon-colored horse. Watts notes that this term generally "applies to a horse of California or Spanish stock." Smith indicates that this term can also refer to a brown or cinammon-colored cow. The DRAE, DM, and VCN all reference this term as a color for horses. Islas specifies that the color is a mixture of sorrel and white and that horses of this color have muzzle, mane, tail, and points of a reddish-brown color. Santamaría also says that the color is similar to sorrel mixed with white, but that the horse's muzzle, mane, tail, and points are black. -
