subst. (fisk) (Lat: Manta birostris) manta -
6 manta
Arizona: 1887. A pack cover, generally a large cotton or canvas one (approximately nine feet by twelve feet), laid over the top of a loaded packsaddle to protect the goods from rain or snowstorms. It may also have been wrapped around a load of goods before setting it on the packsaddle. Among the several definitions given by the DRAE for this term is a one describing piece of ordinary cotton fabric used in Mexico or a piece of cloth used as protection for the horses. Santamaría defines it as an ordinary piece of cotton cloth used primarily for everyday clothing. No Spanish source gives a definition identical to the southwestern meaning of 'pack cover.' It is possible that the first manta was an improvised one and the name simply stuck.Alternate form: manto. -
