Cowboys lived through about 1893-1918. Cowboys were men who worked on a ranch for a living and stayed in tents and wagons beyond the property line. But when miners struck gold in California, Everything changed. The ranch owners left hoping to become rich while the cowboys stayed.Soon the Cowboys didnt want to work on a ranch anymore, so they left for California.Cowboys soon became known for robbing passerbys and stealing cattle.Soon they attained the name "Cowboys" because of there many actions of stealing cattle.Cowboys then had many kinds of bounty on there head such as gold and money.They turned themselves in for the reward and later broke out. Cowboys arent around much anymore but some still live on ranches like they used to but very rarely.I hope this answered your question!
